A controversial cult-classic from Liliana Cavani, The Night Porter tells the story of Lucia Atherton (Charlotte Rampling, Swimming Pool) and her tempestuous journey of sexual rediscovery and emotional liberation.  When concentration camp survivor, Lucia, discovers her past tormentor and ex-lover Maximilian (Dirk Bogarde, Despair) in a hotel working as a night porter in post-war Vienna she makes a decision to confront him and pick up where their sado-masochistic relationship left off. But when Maximilian's former SS comrades discover his alarming reunion with Lucia they set out to stalk the lovers and put an end to their twisted game of sex and romance.

An intense power-play, piercing the darkness of guilt and pleasure, The Night Porter remains a riveting exploration of the depths of the human condition.
