En 1971, en plena resaca del Mayo del 68, el cineasta yugoslavo Dusan Makavejev se convierte en el artista escandaloso del momento con esta especie de falso documental sobre sexo y política, en el que se combinan noticiarios, entrevistas, ficción y ocurrencias surrealistas varias. El guión, apenas esbozado, gira en torno a la vida y obra del psiquiatra austriaco Wilhelm Reich, descubridor de la energía orgásmica, y a las peripecias de dos jovencitas comunistas con muchas ganas de experimentar con sus respectivos y pimpantes cuerpos. Todo ello mezclado con imágenes manipuladas de Stalin, escenas de sexo explícito e incluso una sesión de electroshock real. (FILMAFFINITY)
