Two dramatic stories. In an undetermined past, a young cannibal (who killed his own father) is condemned to be torn to pieces by some wild beasts. In the second story, Julian, the young son of a post-war German industrialist, is on the way to lie down with his farm's pigs, because he doesn't like human relationships.

rotten:
This isn't one of Pasolini's greatest films, though it's possibly the one that today best shows the warp and woof of its period.

Not only an exquisitely revolting satire, it is also Pasolini's most fascinating piece of cinema.
