The Decameron
directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. Italy, France, Germany, 1971, 110 min.
In the Decameron - which was to form the Trilogy of Life together with his two subsequent films - Pasolini sets out to sing the praises of the sexual vitality of the common people before the onset of merchant society. Winning a Silver Bear award at the Berlin Film Festival, the movie sparked a heated debate and an endless series of imitations in Italy.


Followed by The Set in Sana'a, a segment never yet screened (5 min.)
