This film is a strange one, being a crime mystery and erotica with art-house pretensions thrown in for good measure. The film starts in Stockholm where Ann (Gio Petre) murders a man in a circus ring and then switches to Ann and Eve (Marie Liljedahl) going off on a motoring holiday to Yugoslavia (modern-day Croatia). Both women are contemptuous of men yet both intend to have a good time with men: Eve especially is intent on a final fling before getting married.
The relationship between the two women is a strange one. They are supposed to be friends, yet when Eve ends up naked, drunk and out for the count on a fishing boat (Eve apparently likes a bit of rough) Ann leaves her and goes off in search of a good time in a local village. Ann also likes a bit of rough, standing almost naked at a window to tempt one of the locals. As the film nears its end, the two women have drifted apart with Eve at a weird massage parlour with a dwarf playing the piano and then getting a lift in the back of a truck with some drunken locals who proceed to give her more good times before dropping her off at Trieste, not that she seems particularly put out by her experiences. There is more weirdness at a film festival when a film director is seen walking naked down the road to a notice about The Emperor's New Clothes.
According to the trivia on the DVD, the film caused some notoriety on its release in the USA and in the UK. The film did not go down well in Yugoslavia either because of the film's uncomplimentary portrayal of Yugoslav locals. The DVD by Another World is supposed to be the full version running to 105 minutes but although Gio Petre and Marie Liljedahl do some topless scenes, the scene in the massage parlour and one other scene have been blurred beyond recognition. Also note that some photos on the DVD cover show scenes that do not appear on the DVD.
