The tone is playful yet a bit daring, showing an experimental side that gives off a kind of intimate vibe.

What's distinctive here is the blend of personal expression and the playful exploration of themes that might've been considered taboo back then.

This film is somewhat of a rarity in the collector's market. It's been released in various formats over the years, but finding a good quality version can be a challenge due to its age and the limited runs. Many collectors are drawn to Rocco’s work for its earnestness and the personal touch he brings to his films, which makes this title particularly appealing for those interested in underground cinema and the evolution of LGBTQ+ themes in film.
