Chinese Kamasutra

1993 · 85 min

A dreamy, soft-focus erotic fantasy that drifts between library, haunted house and ritual, more mood than logic.

Joe D'Amato
Genres
Fantasy, Romance
Overview
Joan Parker, an American scholar of Chinese lore, recently took on a job at a Chinese library. When she stumbles upon a volume of the Kamasutra, her sexual fantasies are unleashed, but she remains cold towards the advances of her fellow librarian. There seems to be a connection to a haunted house she passes by on her way home, and the strange man keeps watching her from a barred window above. Unknowingly, she stumbles into the clutches of the Kamasutra cult, and through a series of trials and orgies discovers her sexuality...and her true nature as a reincarnation of an unhappy lover
