Our take

Structured around seduction rituals reminiscent of Pasolini’s Teorema, Mysteries is pure sartorial eye candy. Here, the caress of velvet is as heady as a kiss! Starring alongside a hunky Rutger Hauer (Blade Runner), Sylvia Kristel delivers an unusual object of desire cunningly adept at love games.
