Definitely not going to be for everybody.
However will obviously be outrageously and humorously appealing to all us depraved dudes.
Tinto believes in in your face exploitation of every male/female fetish out there, and its done in a very beautiful and impressively artistic Visual Style. This stuff is light years beyond cheapo stag film trash.
You will be asking yourself, did we really just go there?.... and how low can he go?...

Story
Italy. The early 1960s. The Veneto region. In a small unnamed town, a frustrated young woman named Lola is about to be married to Masetto. Lola is frustrated because she is still a virgin and desperately wants to get laid before marriage. You could say that she is basically "in heat."
Lola is the daughter of Zaria who lives with a famous retired ocean liner chef André who may or may not be her father.
André, Zaria, and Pepè were all shipmates on the Normandie. Pepè was the ships photographer, and Zaria was one of many of the ships lascivious stewardesses.
Pepè is married to Michelle a dressmaker who dabbles a bit as lipstick lesbian.
Masetto is the son of a baking family. His mother Carmelina does not approve of the way Lola dresses and carries on in front of everybody with pants, while her husband Toni, Masetto's father, is indifferent.
André, and Pepè spend their leisure hours looking at Pepè collection of slides he's taken over the years of women. Both André, and Pepè are "ass men" greatly admiring enticing rumps.
Zarita and some of her sisters on the Normandie were stewardess' with benefits. André remarks that its was a floating brothel. Lola has never told André who Lola's father really is.

This is followed by an amusing sequence with the two priests who have watched Lola dismount. We watch as they approach the bike with great interest.

The priests walk over to Lola's bike, remove there capello romanos, bend over and sniff lola's bicycle seat. How noir is this, lol.

Here we a long, pretty explicit, masturbating sequence with Lola fantasying also about Zarita, André and Pepè and their sexual adventures back on the Normandie. The octopus from the kitchen shows up in her mastrubation fantasy as a body paint octopus on Zarita's left breast with her nipple for it's beak.

We cut now to Lola and Masetto, walking along a river juxtaposed with Gildo the town voyeur and his antics. When Lola tries to seduce Masetto he tells her no and to wait for their marriage. (Note that while Lola remains a virgin, Masetto regularly sees a prostitute unbeknownst to Lola, to get his rocks off. A little double standard).
Of course, this causes a very frustrated Lola to storm off in a downpour where things go even more sexually Noirsville.

Its a plus that its is filmed in very bold, in your face, stylistic manner. It's a voyeurs wet dream, and not for everyone, obviously. A 6-6.5 / 10.
