Vizi privati, pubbliche vertù (1975, Italy)

This film reminded me strongly of Saló, another Italian near-porn art film. During the era of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, a lot of people meet up in the countryside and prance about naked. From the giggling they seem to be enjoying it, but apart from the full frontal nudity, there isn't really much "action". The whole thing is pretty tasteless and drab.

One of the people making sport this way seems to be a hermaphrodite.

The film has been released with English subtitles under the name Private Vices, Public Virtues,
