    • Trivia
      The music played during the presentation scene of Zohra Ben Brahim is a fragment of the "Épigraphes antiques", a piano (4 hands) piece reworking of the "Chansons de Bilitis" (1900/1901), that Debussy wrote for a chamber ensemble to accompany the recitation of the Zohra-inspired poems by Pierre Louÿs in 1900/1901. These pieces were composed, in any case, a few years after the scene depicted, but the connection is totally adequate.

      Performed by Guilhem Fabre

    Artistic erotic film!
    Curiosa is an interesting erotic film about a woman's love and her sexuality, feminism crashing with machismo, a strange relationship about a free soul married woman who sometimes is a submissive object for love to a casanova photographer. The music score is amazing and the performances are correct, great filming locations, costumes and cinematography. The erotic scenes are perfectly filmed. Negative points are that sometimes the script is very slow and repetitive.

    A good erotic art film based on true events, but it could be much better, something is missing.
