Kucharz, złodziej, jego żona i jej kochanka · dir. Peter Greenaway

Trailer

The wife of a barbaric crime boss engages in a secretive romance with a gentle bookseller between meals… at her husband’s restaurant. Food, colour coding, sex, murder, torture and cannibalism are the exotic fare in this beautifully filmed but brutally uncompromising modern fable which has been interpreted as an allegory for Thatcherism.
