Don't Look Down (2008) ****

Eliseo Subiela's masterpiece and his only film where eroticism and romanticism fuse together effortlessly rather than cancel each other out (which was unfortunately the case in some of his earlier pictures such as "The Dark Side of the Heart" and "Don't Die Without Telling Me Where You're Going"). Gorgeous Antonella Costa, last seen in "Cobrador In God We Trust", spends almost the entire film completely naked, while introducing a young sleepwalking student into the joys of tantric sex.
