Thomsen’s Danish-style Teorema (1968) predating Pasolini’s is as double-edged as its title (gift meaning both “poison” and “married”). The director conceived it as a polemical tract against pornography and the moral decay of Danish society. But by filling it with nudity and hardcore snippets, he ironically paved the way for a censorship-free Denmark, which in 1969 became the first country to legalize pornography. The censors covered the explicit scenes with thick white crosses (making them somehow even more obscene). And it is precisely on such a historical 35mm print that we will have the pleasure to see the film!

The first lady of French porno chic, Brigitte Lahaie, returns in the original instalment of the cheeky fan favourite Six Swedish Girls at a Boarding School—taking place before the young Swedes found employment at a gas station and well-deserved holidays in Ibiza and the Alps. Directed by the “Swiss Roger Corman”, Erwin C. Dietrich, the evergreen hit from our Socialist past and the once notorious erotic Kino Sloga is bursting at the seams with zany humour, mechanical invention, and healthy minds in oh, such healthy bodies.

Japanese pinku eiga icon Reiko Ike teams up with cult Swedish sensation Christina Lindberg in a spectacular sword-and-gun-wielding showdown against the yakuza—the former seeking revenge for her father’s death, the latter trying to escape captivity. A cult classic favourite from Toei Studio’s infamous pinky violence cycle, the iconic scenes directed by genre legend Norifumi Suzuki served as an inspiration and blueprint for Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill (2003–2004).
