Anecdotes
This movie was supposed to be released in 1973, but the production company went bankrupt before the release. In 1975 it was banned by the Italian board of film review. In 1979 Renato Polselli re-cut and re-dubbed the movie, ostensibly to turn it into an allegory of female oppression. This new version was approved by the board the following year. An extended version with hardcore footage was released in adult movie theaters without the board authorization. After the release, the movie was also seized by the authorities for a few months.

Autres versions
After the first cut was rejected by the Italian censorship, the movie was completely re-cut and re-dubbed, changing the whole narrative and dialogues. The new version also had a limited release with hardcore footage edited in. As a result, several different versions of the movie exist.

Pretentious sleaze

A group of people come together and talk about transgressive sexual subjects. This is inter-cut with often graphic sex scenes involving rape, torture, bestiality, lesbianism, masturbation and other subjects you may or may not be able to think of.

I will freely admit that not being able to really speak Italian with any real ability put me at a disadvantage since a good portion of the film consists of heated discussion. Yet somehow I think that had I been able to really understand what was being said I probably would have rated this lower than a three its its filmed in a very pretentious way. My annoyance with the film comes from the feeling that the film makers wanted to make a REALLY dirty movie and felt that the only way to do it was turn it into a political or sociological discussion. I did not find it deep or meaningful, but rather dull and boring in a "thats nice dear" sort of way.

Ultimately the movie fails to be erotic because its too arty and fails to be meaningful because its too smutty. I'd let this one be unless you'd really like to see a few "taboo" fetishistic subjects portrayed in some rather awkward scenes.
