Summary: "A truly literate and sophisticated film spectacle by perhaps the greatest of all film artists, this Oscar-nominated masterpiece by Federico Fellini, the director of such world-renowned classics, as la Dolce Vita, La Strada and 8 1/2, is a fabulous trip into a totally decadent civilization delivering a brilliant visual fantasy unlike anything you have seen. Step into the bawdy, erotic and titillating world of Rome during the days of Emperor Nero, where two competing teachers play tricks on each other while vying for the same lover's charms. Paralleling the self-indulgence of modern society, these Roman citizens pursue their own gratification above all else, resulting in both intense pleasure and enormous despair, displayed in visually deductive scenes that are both shocking, unprecedented and brilliantly stunning."--Distributor's description.
