Date: Monday 12 October

Location: Cinematek
Il Decameron - Pier
Paolo Pasolini
A woman who seduces a rich
young man and subsequently humiliates him, a priest who misuses an exorcism
in order to have sex, or a man who pretends to be handicapped in order
to get inside a convent full of young nuns: in Il Decamerone, the first
part of his 'Trilogy of life', Pasolini tells eight ironic tales from the
book of the same name by Boccaccio about sexual temptation. The link between
the various sequences is the painter Giotto, played by Pasolini himself,
who attempts to complete a fresco.
