SYNOPSIS: Fabrizio (Martin Loeb), and girl, Laura (Lara Wendel), must psychically explore their budding sexuality. Things get complicated when Silvia (Eva Lonesco) enters the picture & our young hero is drawn to her and Laura now feels ignored. As the tension between the three builds cruel games are used to express complex emotions. A realistic look at this developmental stage which does not shy away from the passions and confusions of puberty. The three actors are the complete cast while the movie was filmed mostly in a picturesque forest.

EDITORIAL REVIEW:  This remastered version of Italy's Maladolescenza comes from Germany and it's called Spielen wir Leibe (the literal English translation is "We play body").  It is a lot like France's Les Diables except the main actors aren't involved in a weird incest relationship thing.  Throw in a little Ken Park and mix it with a dash of American Pie and you have this film! Our hero, Fabrizio, and his young love interest, Laura, are involved in a just plain weird relationship. They love each other, they hate each other...they love each other, they hate each other.  Many scenes were cut from the original Italian release in the late 70's. Here we offer it completely as it was meant to be seen, totally uncut in this import from Germany!
