The Thousand and One Nights of Boccaccio in Canterbury

1973 · 95 min · ★ 5.1 · Comedy

Boccaccio dreams of making a trip to hell and listening to the licentious tales of the damned: Story 1: Two couples, unknown to each one of them agree for swinging, but each meets one's own spouse. Story 2: A friar takes advantage, with deception, of a young bride obsessed with her insatiable husband. Story 3: A merchant is absent from home by entrusting his wife to her nephew and she initiates him to sexual experiences. Story 4: A husband has a homosexual relationship with one of his workers; the wife threatens the worker and requires too much sex from him and causes to his death. Story 5: A husband entrusts his wife and daughter to a music teacher who is considered inverted and therefore inoffensive: he has relationships with two women separately and together.
