Summary: From case cover: Pier Paolo Pasolini's notorious final film, "Salò, or The 120 Days of Sodom", has been called nauseating, shocking, depraved, pornographic... It's also a masterpiece. The controversial poet, novelist, and filmmaker's transposition of the Marquis de Sade's eighteenth-century opus of torture and degradation to 1944 Fascist Italy remains one of the most passionately debated films of all time, a thought-provoking inquiry into the political, social, and sexual dynamics that define the world we live in.
