Censorship was brutal. The “under-18” classification (indicated by the file name's -- 18- ) was applied retroactively in several countries.

Franco himself was called to testify about the film’s “artistic merit” in a now-famous 1971 German court case, where he argued that the sex and violence were metaphors for the psychological destruction of the male ego. He won, but the film remained controversial.
