The Canterbury Tales

Synopsis:

This film adaptation of Geoffrey Chaucer’s collection of stories written at the end of the 14th century features 8 out of 24 stories, infused with distinctive slapstick humour, nudity and sex scenes. Some scenes are not based on Chaucer’s original, but are instead a part of Pasolini’s own vision.
