Publisher's Synopsis
Hungarian director Miklos Jancso explores the politics of sexuality and rebellion in this sexually explicit historical drama based on the life of 19th-century European aristocrat Archduke Rudolf. Bored with his straight-laced wife, the youthful Archduke (Lajos Balazsovits) spends his time engaged in amorous dalliances at a sprawling country estate. When his wife departs following the arrival of his libertarian friends, they organise a celebration which turns into a wild orgy and culminates in death and tragedy.
