Reading the back of the DVD case - and even the summary on this site - would lead you to believe that this movie would be an exploration of love and sexuality by three well known world directors. You would think that it would be sensual, thought provoking, emotional, and given the title certainly erotic, and most of all, good. But sadly it wasn't any of these things.
There were a few redeeming features - the first short was beautiful to watch and the actors were well chosen, the second had some bits of wonderful acting and interesting photography, and...um...for the third, only the location was interesting.
In the end, don't believe the "plot summary" on this site, or the description on the DVD. Not only is it misleading, but some is just plain inaccurate. The only thing that delivered on its promise in this movie was the title screen that strung the movie together - which connected to the idea of what the movie SHOULD be, instead of what it actually was.
As a last note, if you're still determined to watch this DVD, you may as well numb yourself further by watching the "Michaelangelo Eye to Eye" short in the Special Features. Antonionio (I think) wanders into a church in Italy and stares interminably at parts of statues created by the sculptor Michaelangelo; at least those are real art. Too bad the director didn't learn anything from his namesake...
