TRIVIA: Etymology

Originally titled as Burlesk Queen after Burlesk Queen (1977), it was changed to "Burlesque Queen". But since the registered owner of Burlesk Queen disagreed, the production changed the title to Margarita.

Product Description

Porcile, (Pigsty) the story of a cannibal in a medieval wasteland is interwoven with that of the son of an ex-Nazi industrialist in modern day Germany. The young German, who is more attracted to pigs than his fiancee, and the cannibal become sacrificial victims of their different societies. This strange, grotesque and thought provoking parable is filmed with such a calm beauty and underlying disgust that it gains a deep significance as an attack on the middle classes of the 20th century.
