Editorial Review:
Sex and Lucia engages mind and body with its time-bending narrative and images of beautiful Spaniards having vibrant sex. The story shifts between past and present, fact and fiction, so a plot summary won't capture it, but… A young writer named Lorenzo falls into a passionate relationship with a waitress named Lucía. But he also finds himself drawn to a young nanny taking care of a child who just might be the result of an anonymous fling Lorenzo had with a woman he met on an island the year before. Lorenzo fantasizes about the lives of all of these women until a horrific event sends him into a suicidal depression. This may sound obscure or flat, but Sex and Lucía unfolds clearly and beautifully, featuring stunning visual images of both nature and flesh, and weaving a poetic spell much like the director's previous film, The Lovers of the Arctic Circle. --Bret Fetzer
Sex and Lucia (R-Rated Edition) Reviews:
An erotic Love Story 
2009-10-29 - One of the most charged erotically love story I have seen! And I own 9 1/2 weeks.
masterpiece 
2009-07-13 - this film should be watched twice - first time to see it, second time to get it. it's one of the most interesting, sensual and beautiful movies i've ever seen!!!
I Couldn't Decide ... 
2009-05-06 - ... whether to regard this film as pretentious pseudo-pornography or pornographic pseudo-pretentiousness. Perhaps both? En todo caso, ¡no me ha divertido suficientemente!
What I Saw 
2009-03-31 - I saw a lot of two young people enjoying sex and a rather convoluted tale wrapped around them. Acting was good, bodies were beautiful.
Paz Vega's conquest of Latin America! 
2009-03-18 - Just make sure you're getting the Unrated Version, then savor the taste of cinematic dulce de leche...
