This mood piece by Paul Thomas obviously reflects his "artsy" side, not his strongest suit. By eliminating all dialogue and having his characters glide through the frame like fantasy figures, he creates tedium rather and drains the intrinsic suspense from the brief (hour-long) movie.

The story is not specific and uninteresting, despite the didactic synopsis in IMDb (way too literal a reaction to the visuals). Basically it is styled to show off Raquel Darian's body beautiful posing, with an endless orgy inserted in the middle reels which plays like wisps of memory or even out of body (watching one's orgy from the outside) experience. Finale seems like a suspenseful scene but is mere roleplaying.

Clearly, Raquel fans might enjoy this indulgent exercise, but it cheats on the audience in a way I normally associate with the David Hamilton dreamy softcore portraits of young girls or more closely, the various John Derek tributes to his wife Bo.

The fantasy genre features imaginative and often magical worlds, characters, and events. It explores realms beyond the boundaries of reality, featuring elements such as magic, mythical creatures, supernatural powers, and fantastical settings. These stories can take place in entirely fictional worlds or blend fantastical elements with real-world settings.

The romance genre features the theme of romantic relationships and emotional connections between characters. These stories focus on the development of love, desire, and intimacy between protagonists, often exploring the challenges, conflicts, and triumphs that arise in their relationships.

A stalker has been spying on Racquel Darrian as she swims naked in her swimming pool. Stalker followers her to a seedy bar and watches her have lesbian sex with the resident sleaze bag (Trixy) in front of the locals. Trixy then takes her new trophy to an orgy with one of the local men. Trixy joins in as Racquel watches, becoming more aroused. Local guy has it off with Racquel. However, stalker guy is at window watching his dream girl. Racquel apparently spends the night. The next morning, Racquel is home admiring her naked body in the mirror. Stalker guy has broken in. He chases her. After catching her, she pretends to fight. We then understand it's her husband, who apparently enjoys watching his beautiful wife going at it with strange men and lesbians. He goes down on her, despite three different men poking her just hours before. He then bangs her.
