IMMORAL TALES

“Takes Borowczyk's celebrated eye for erotic representation about as far as it can go.”

CHRIS PEACHMENT

Walerian Borowczyk's first explicitly erotic feature, Immoral Tales presents a veritable cavalcade of depravity: cosmic fellatio, transcendental masturbation, blood-drenched lesbianism and papal incest.

It tells four stories, each delving further back in time, as if to suggest that the same issues recur constantly throughout human civilisation, whether involving notorious historical figures like Lucrezia Borgia and Erzsébet Báthory, or present-day teenagers.
