Five strangers explore their fantasies over a period of five days in Stephen Dwoskin's remarkable experimental film.

Drama 1976 142 mins

Director: Stephen Dwoskin

Rent for £2.50

Overview

For this remarkable experimental film, the provocative avant-garde legend Stephen Dwoskin gathered together a group of strangers and filmed them as they explored their fantasies over a period of five days: a project that now sounds a little like TV's Big Brother. The ceremonial gowns and make-up here not only evoke the eroticism of European horror movies but also highlight the film's interplay between performance and intimacy.

Jonas Mekas called it "theatre of life".
