Viva

Shameless raises the curtain on the 70's Sexual Revolution with filmmaker Anna Biller's exquisite tapestry reimagining the titillation of that era. Defying the preconceptions of so-called skin flicks, VIVA is underpinned by bold and cheeky irony, yet the dead-pan tone never passes any moral-judgement. From Cult female director, Anna Biller (The Love Witch).Barbi, played by Anna, is a bored Los Angeles housewife who yearns for a life beyond suburban ennui. After a quarrel with her husband, she reinvents herself as Viva, and dives into an odyssey of sexual liberation - encountering swingers' clubs, brothels, psychedelic hippy communes - climaxing in a spectacular drug-fuelled orgy..!This world-1st release on Blu-ray, made with HD materials provided by the director herself, finally does justice to this exquisite tableau filled with astonishing attention to details and eye-popping production design inspired by period Playboy magazines. Crackling with joyous parody, this striking tour-de-force becomes an art-form per se. And it's sexy too!Extras:Director's own behind the scenes featuretteAudio commentary by 'Diabolique' magazine ccritic Heather DrainUnique behind the scenes photos from the setTheatrical trailer
