Film Notes

A traditional wrestling championship with men covered in grease and wearing thick leather trousers. Belly dancers perform a show during the competition. Of all the films in the series it is the only one to deal with eroticism and sensuality. The virile beauty of the male body in all its power and strength and erotic offering of female bodies (a shy striptease that reminds us that Istanbul was the Babylon of the Middle East) to excite a male audience that prefers the company of women to the wrestlers.
