An acclaimed filmic anthology of three of author Paul Bowles' exotic, mysterious short stories. In "Merkala Beach" two Moroccan bachelors are seduced by a femme fatale; in "Call at Corazon" honeymooners find meaning in their new marriage on a voyage along the Amazon; in "Allal" an Indian orphan boy has a transcendent relationship with a cobra. This German production is in English and Arabic with subtitles.

"...Filmed with a remarkably acute sensitivity to landscape and atmosphere..." -- Stephen Holden , (New York Times)

"...Moody, gorgeous-looking....Graceful, insightful vignettes set in beguiling exotic locales that add up to an exquisitely wrought, sophisticated diversion..." -- Kevin Thomas , (Los Angeles Times)

"...Ultimately, these stories are more of a trip than marijuana or beer, with no bothersome aftereffects..." -- Lloyd Sachs , (Chicago Sun-Times)
