"Of Freaks and Men" is a Russian contribution that deals with a strange story of an early 1900s pornographer (his works are collections of women being subjected to flagellation). Pictures are taken and then sold to collector's. With the purchase ofa cinematograph, Johan begins filming the participants. He later begins photographing the Siamese twin sons of another customer who pays a visit to him, shooting him dead. The twins (Aleksei de and Chingiz Tsydendabayev) are piano prodigies who have been playing the piano accompaniment for the spanking films. One twin falls for one of the participants and becomes her lover in an effort to protect her, but his brother takes up drinking which will soon be the downfall of both of them. If you like the bizarre, this is the film for you. Viewer discretion: moderate nudity and spanking violence.
