It would be interesting to talk to the 'actors' now...
This is uncomfortable viewing, especially in this age of child abuse awareness, paranoia and scandal.
Don't be fooled by the arthouse smokescreen - this is exploitation in, possibly, the worst sense of the word - shame on the parents of these young boys.
Lyric International was a producer of pornography - it may be viewed as mild in comparison with today's standards but it is still pornography...a sickening exploitation of youth.
The company, quite rightly, ended in 1973 with a litany of criminal charges.
This is child pornography - some may argue against this statement - those who do should be investigated...thoroughly.
No trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
A charismatic leader and a high-spirited student group are on holiday in Italy. The surreal adventures of these friends are a free-flowing, four-part "multi-sensual symphony," bereft of traditional story line. One national critic described the boys' anarchic revelry as a "dream-like descent from civilization into the chaos reminiscent of Lord of the Flies."
