Set in a working-class apartment building in Rome, the lives of a bisexual former body builder, his wife, his male lover, and a pair of ambitious criminals intersect against a backdrop of crime, confused sexual feelings, and tainted relationships. Soon these lost souls will come to find that the hunger for power is an unstoppable disease from which there is no cure. Nominated for a Queer Lion and a Fedeora Award at the **Venice Film Festival**. *"TAINTED SOULS is gripping and compelling. The characters are realistic and relatable, the acting is superb, the directing is sublime, and the screenplay handles its large cast expertly." - Bobby LePire, **Film Threat***
