Product Information
Pier Paolo Pasolini's controversial interpretation of De Sade's infamous work (and his last film) was long banned in Britain, but was at last granted a certificate by the Bbfc in 2000. Arguably Pasolini's most controversial film, he transplants de Sade's 120 Days of Sodom to fascist Italy in 1944. The film stands as a potent metaphor about power, commerce and exploitation as it follows the extreme acts of four despotic pleasure seekers (Paolo Bonacelli, Giorgio Cataldi, Uberto Paolo Quintavalle, Aldo Velletti) gathered together in a prison castle, with the captive inmates subjected to acts of torture, violence and degradation.Product Identifiers
