A gang of violent delinquents terrorise the urban area they inhabit until their leader is apprehended and undergoes aversion therapy, preventing him being violent again, but when his case becomes a political football anything can happen. |

Much extreme violence, including nudity and rape and some extraordinary sexual symbolism. |
A View |
The violence of the film caused the director to withdraw it in UK after, it is rumoured, he received death threats. But like it or not, it is one of those films you have to see. |
