Synopsis:
France 1774. Expelled from the puritanical court of Louis XVI, a group of aristocratic libertines pursue an ideal of enlightenment through the rejection of conventional morality. At a time when hypocrisy and false virtue reign, they seek a place to indulge their quest for pleasure, inhabiting a libidinous twilight world dedicated to realising unfulfilled desires. Albert Serra's explicit and opulent exploration of the limits of the erotic imagination is one of the most radical and subversive works of recent times, making 'Liberte' a singular cinematic experience.

self indulgent demi porn - Liberté review by robin

Spoiler Alert
20/05/2021

By the intensity and earnestness of this 'film' I'm sure the film makers are convinced they are uncovering and making some sort of historical statement... Well what ever the intention was, it' miss's the mark and fails to tell anything that resembles a plot.. quite how this ended up on the Cannes horizons is quite beyond me. Even the cinematography was poor... imo A waste of, what was I presume a decent budget.

Very dull - Liberté review by NK

Spoiler Alert
30/05/2021

I stuck with this for about half an hour before I realised I was dozing off, so I gave up. A group of dissolute eighteenth century noblemen (and a couple of women) in a forest not doing very much, mainly just watching each other. There might be a few soft porn moments but the picture is so dark that it could just as easily have been my imagination trying to fill the void.
