Salamander (1969)

Originaltitel: Le salamandre

Inspired by the writings of writer Fritz Fanon, who believed that a colonial population could only reach freedom by declaring violence towards their occupiers, Cavallone’s tale sees a white photographer (Erna Schurer) who seduces a black model (the lovely ebony Beryl Cunningham). A doctor then arrives on the scene – Anthony Vernon (Antonio Casale) who took his pseudonym from Jesus Franco stalwart Howard Vernon – and Schurer falls for his charms.
