Arabian Nights (Il fiore delle Mille e una notte) 50 years old

A film by Pier Paolo Pasolini

Arabian Nights

The final part of Pasolini's Trilogy of Life series is rich with exotic tales of slaves and kings, potions, betrayals, demons and, most of all, love and lovemaking in all its myriad forms. Mysterious and liberating, this is an exquisitely dreamlike and adult interpretation of the original folk tales.
