Revolution

Coup d'état in a small South American country. The perpetrators of these troubles are a paranoid government, formed of a handful of perverse ministers who, inside the Presidential Palace, imperturbably debauchery the women of the world and the small staff of the Presidency. Outside, the Revolution is raging. An American journalist arrives in this golden hell of orgies and lust. This depraved government is far from imagining that the beautiful American woman only indulges in these sexual effusions to facilitate the entry into the Palace of the pack of revolutionaries who will resolve the country's political problems in the orgy.

Directed by José Bénazéraf, Revolution leans on a strong ensemble — Olinka Hardiman, Jennifer Haussmann, Gabriel Pontello — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1983.
