8 1/2 Women (1999)

A startling and challenging voyage into the taboo worlds of sex and death from Peter Greenaway, the cult director of THE COOK, THE THIEF, HIS WIFE AND HER LOVER and THE PILLOW BOOK.
When wealthy Swiss architect Phil Emmenthal (John Standing) takes financial control of a group of Pachinko game parlours in Japan, and puts his strange son Storey (Matthew Delamare) in charge, his life takes on a new meaning. For, in the wake of his wife's death, Storey leads his shattered father into a self-revelatory journey of erotic discovery and spiritual lust. As the pair travel between Tokyo and Geneva acquiring exotic lovers on the way, their Geneva home becomes a high class brothel where nothing is forbidden and everything is explored for maximum understanding of their own male sexuality and humanity.
Full of the shocking images and no-holds-barred sensuality that he is universally acclaimed for, Peter Greenway's latest peerless work of art is a thought-provoking Fellini-esque masterpiece.
