a| A loose adaptation of the Marquis de Sade's The 120 Days of Sodom, Pier Paolo Pasolini's Salò is perhaps one of the most disturbing and disgusting film ever made. The director was assassinated within a month of its release, allegedly because of the controversial nature of his oeuvre. It is also one of the most important of his works, offering a blistering critique of fascism and idealism that suggests moral redemption may be nothing but a myth. Set in the Nazi-controlled, northern Italian state of Salo in 1944, four dignitaries round up eighteen perfect specimens of youth and take them together with guards, servants and studs to a palace near Marzabotto. In addition, there are four middle-aged women, three of whom tell arousing stories whilst the fourth accompanies them on the piano. Two of the company die shortly, and the rest are subject to 120 days of physical, mental and sexual torture. The story is largely taken up with their recounting the stories of Dante and De Sade: the Circle of Manias, the Circle of S*** and the Circle of Blood. Following this, the youths are executed whilst each libertine takes his turn as voyeur.
