A Private Collection

1972 · 12 min Documentary
4.9 / 10 · TMDB

A witty and eye-opening tour through Borowczyk's own collection of vintage erotica. Originally intended as part of his 'Contes immoraux', it was released first as a separate short, and is therefore marks the turning-point between Borowczyk's career as a highly-regarded animator and surrealist filmmaker, and his subsequent career in the sexploitation field.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Borowczyk constructs the film as a wunderkammer of desire, where each artifact whispers a secret history. He relies on the curator's gaze to transform observation into a form of erotic archaeology.

What lingers after the tour is a sly, unsettling dialogue with the past, where art and arousal are inseparable. The film remains a pivotal artifact from a director crossing his own Rubicon. — MovieFinder Editorial
