User Comments: Let's Sapphic Love Each Other Up To The Death!
Ursula, a photographer of tall fashion, is in Tunisia for job: with her there is Uta, her favorite model, a black girl who has succeeded in escaping the ghetto poverty with the job that Ursula has offered her. Henri Duval arrival, a French physician, breaks the equilibrium of their loving relationship. He seems to want to dig in their consciences: but while Ursula defends herself answering with some wisecracks, for Uta the words of the doctor have a certain effect that increases her hidden torment, for a racial complex too. And she tries to rebel, also solicited by the mysterious young man, but the strong bond with Ursula remove every courage. Uta has to change life, and Duval offers her to cohabit with him, separating herself from Ursula. But some days after, Henri accepts a loving proposal from the blonde Ursula to encircle her. Unfortunately Uta assists to their erotic embrace and she convinces herself Duval is a deceiver, so the day later on the beach she kills first Duval and then Ursula. Fascinating O.S.T. by Franco Potenza (also music for Ferruccio Casapinta's 'La bambola di Satana', 1969), shot in EASTMANCOLOR PARISCOPE format for VEGA CIN.CA and STAR FILM production. This is a 35mm. positive copy with a good print altogether, with a soft dominant reddish light, fortunately uncut edition (93' and 23'').
