Federico Fellini`s career achieved new levels of eccentricity and brilliance with this remarkable, controversial, extremely loose adaptation of Petronius`s classical Roman satire, written during the reign of Nero. An episodic barrage of sexual licentiousness, godless violence, and eye-catching grotesquerie, Fellini Satyricon follows the exploits of two pansexual young men - the handsome scholar Encolpius and his vulgar, insatiably lusty friend Ascyltus - as they move through a landscape of free-form pagan excess. Creating apparent chaos with exquisite control, Fellini constructs a weird old world that feels like science fiction.
