Swept Away

Italy 1974 | 116 minutes | Italian | Hebrew subtitles

A rich woman is marooned on a small uninhabited island with the communist steward of a yacht she has chartered for a pleasure cruise. Swept Away is one of the pinnacles of Wertmüller's work, a comedy that confronts sex politics with class politics into an explosion that thrilled audiences and critics alike.
