CGiii Comment

A film of contrasts and contradictions - intellectuals will review and everyone else will revile.

For Pasolini fans only - and, not one of his most accessible films [are any!?!.

The(ir) Blurb...

Two dramatic stories. In an undetermined past, a young cannibal (who killed his own father) is condemned to be torn to pieces by some wild beasts. In the second story, Julian, the young son of a post-war German industrialist, is on the way to lie down with his farm's pigs, because he doesn't like human relationships.
