When Laure (Annie Belle) pays a visit to her mum Crystal's (Susan Scott) Egyptian mansion, she finds her surrounded by a weird and perverted array of people. There's um's new boyfriend Antonio (Al Cliver), a self-proclaimed mystic who frequently sleeps with other women during his rituals before Crystal's very eyes, there's Hal (Feodor Chaliapin jr), a ham actor fallen from grace and self-proclaimed pederast, and there's Carlo (Gabriele Tinti), who forces his model Emanuelle (Laura Gemser) to pose in more and more humiliating situations, like naked next to a dog's cadaver or the corpses of killed beduines, and once he even rapes her in front of Laure. Even Laure's sister Magda (Ziggy Zanger) is no saint, keeping a local, Ali (Tarik Ali) as her sex slave.

Eventually, Laure makes Emanuelle rebel against Carlo (and has sex with her herself), exposes Hal as the pathetic fraud he is, and denies Antonio to use her mystic powers on her, instead seduces him in a way that mum learns about it. And when mum threatens to commit suicide (but only fakes it to get attention), she just leaves the whole gang together with Laure, both in the nude.

Nw this could have been an interesting film about sexual humiliation, sado-masochistic and abusive relationhips, and these topics could have provided some great disturbing scenes. The emphasis here is on could have been though, because the film only touches upon its own subject matter in its narrative and has little more to offer than a few beautiful naked bodies  interrupting its travelogue-stlye images of Egypt on a visual level. In all, a disappointment.
