Gewalt und Leidenschaft

An old professor and art-lover shuns society and shuts himself up in his Roman villa. A lovely woman wants to rent the second storey of his manor as lodging for her lover, his daughter and her friend. The woman offers to give the professor, in lieu of rent "Conversation Piece", the only missing painting in his collection of an English series. From that moment on, the old man's home becomes host to desire and vice, violent and passion, until they reach their apex in death.
