Harem (1985)

£0.00


Country: FR
Technical: col/scope 113m
Director: Arthur Joffé
Cast: Nastassja Kinski, Ben Kingsley

Synopsis:

An American woman is kidnapped by an Arab sheikh and held captive in his harem, but after a time grows to appreciate her gilded cage.

Review:

Curious melodrama, at once an evocation of The Sheikh in its central predicament and a critique of Western societies' encroachment upon more ancient cultures. Kingsley's performance helps maintain some interest.
