Sadomania
Directed by Jesús Franco
Produced by Plata Films S.A., Lisa Film
A brutal, exploitative women's-prison film that prioritizes graphic depictions of sexual violence and torture over narrative coherence or character development.
Soon after newlyweds Olga and Michel set foot on the grounds of a notorious women's prison, they're arrested by topless guards and ushered behind bars where the warden quickly dismisses Michel but demands that Olga do a little time.
