In this provocative comedy-drama, a widowed businessman Philip Emmenthal and his son Storey populate their Geneva villa with eight-and-a-half concubines after watching Federico Fellini's "8 ½". Each woman has a unique personality - from a nun to a child bearer - and as the year passes, they begin to assert their own power. The film is an international co-production that explores themes of loss, exploitation, and rebellion, showcasing Peter Greenaway's unflinching approach to breaking taboos.
