Gunilla (Christina Lindberg) is happily married to Janne (Thomas
Nervell), but her best friend Nora (Eva Portnoff) warns her that he might
cheat on her with another woman - and she would know, since she's the
woman Janne has an affair with. Thing is though, Janne is still totally in
love with Gunilla, he just loves Nora as well, and even Nora loves Gunilla
as a friend and maybe more and doesn't want to do anything to hurt her -
but all that said, Nora and Janne love each other as well. The only
logical and sensible solution would be a menage a trois, but the
problem is to convince Gunilla, who doesn't know about her hubby and best
friend's affair, that this is a good idea. Nora asks Janne for one week
to persuade Gunilla, so Janne pretends to go on a business trip, and Nora
asks Gunilla to move into an apartment with her where she wants to have
sex with a boyfriend - and she always has sex with him in a way that
Gunilla can hear them and possibly even join ... at least that's the
intention, but Gunilla gets so confused by hearing the two of them shag
that she runs away, right into the arms of Brit (Margareta Hellström), a
reclusive downstairs toy collector, who invites her in - and makes her
part of her pantomime erotic play performed to tape recordings of stories
of her mad sister. Gunilla gets totally turned on by Brit's play, so she
asks if she can bring Nora along the very next day ... and soon more and
more people join in the plays, which becomes more and more of like orgies.
These plays really bring Gunilla and Nora close to each other, also
sexually, and it eventually leads to Gunilla asking Nora (and not the
other way round) is she wants to move in with her and Janne once he
returns from his business trip, to have endless threesomes and the like. Gunilla,
Nora and Janne's menage a trois works perfectly well, and there is
not a hint of jealousy between them. But still, Gunilla and Nora continue
to visit Brit's plays/orgies, which eventually go out of hands when on one
of the tapes recorded by Brit's sister, she tells the others to gangrape
Brit, and since everybody is still into play-mode, they do so. This puts
Brit out of commission for several weeks, and the participants in her
play, who only later realize what they have done, decide to track down
Brit's sister, but without any success. Gunilla though comes to the
conclusion that Brit herself is the one who has made all the recordings
and there is no mad sister, which puts her at odds with her theatre
group, and at odds with Nora. Eventually, Gunilla is not only expelled
from the group, but Brit even tells Nora to stab her, which Nora does, not
knowing that she only stabs Gunilla with a theatre knife. By this, Gunilla
is able to leave Brit's circle and continue a normal life with Janne,
while Nora is forever lost with Brit and her friends and becomes the
subject of a gangrape in the next play they are performing. Probably
the most unusual of director Joe Sarno's films: Sure, on the surface, this
is another of his character-driven sex dramas, but at the same time it
also chronicles a group of person's descent to insanity in a manner more
disturbing than many horror films, and uses bizarre images and elements of
performing arts to get there, all peppered with a healthy dose of
eroticism. This all results in one of Sarno's best if not most accessible
films, and an exquisite and very stylish piece of disturbing erotica - and
there are not too many pieces of disturbing erotica to begin with, are
there?
