    Anyone know where I can find one??

    Thanks

    I remember Montenegro and maybe themroc- I was 17 at the time in 1986 - one of which I though was in 1986 may have been later and that was the French movie BOF
    which some one has mentioned on here,,

    my question is though there was another movie I saw - don't remember if it was 1986 red triangle movie or later on in the 90's - it was in black and white Russian/german?? set during wartime - some scenes involved a female having sex with a much older
    guy on a settee getting pregnant she later on befriends a younger man who ends up thinking the child is is, another scene involves soldiers searching houses for enemies and another sex scene takes place with a local woman - this film has bugged me for
    years - anyone any ideas

    may have been a 1986 red triangle or part of another series later on - also remember Bergmans virgin spring - maybe around the same time as that

    many thanks
