This film is shocking - but not because of its nude scenes

"365 Days" is currently in third place in the Swiss Netflix charts. If you already thought "50 Shades of Grey" was awful, this erotic drama will make your jaw drop even more.

The following article contains small spoilers. However, you won't find out how the film ends here


Not watching the film was not an option. That's how much the Netflix teaser for the film "365 Days" got me going. The Polish film with the original title "365 dni" was based on the bestselling novel by Blanka Lipińska. The film was directed by Barbara Białowas. Both women. This makes the lack of foresight and the no-frills sexism that dominate this erotic film all the more surprising.

Story and logic are missing

The storyline undercuts everything I've seen so far. You will search in vain for an arc of suspense in the almost two hours. Massimo Torricelli (Michele Morrone), a rich, handsome mafia boss, sees a young woman (Anna-Maria Sieklucka) he doesn't know on the beach in Sicily shortly before his father's death and can't get her out of his head. He is obsessed with her. It is unclear whether he was just imagining the woman at the time or not.

Characterless

Not the sex scenes are shocking

The teaser image for the film shows Laura tied to the bed with her arms while Massimo stands dominantly in front of her. In the background is a huge oil painting of him with a lion, which makes the already over-staged setting even more absurd. The image gives the viewer the impression that things are going to get rough in the film. However, apart from this one scene, there is not much to see of BDSM in the film.

As a massive Disney fan, I see the world through rose-tinted glasses. I worship series from the 90s and consider mermaids a religion. When I’m not dancing in glitter rain, I’m either hanging out at pyjama parties or sitting at my make-up table. P.S. I love you, bacon, garlic and onions.
