Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
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

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Lovely
Beautiful story, beutiful woman and a very pretty island. Erotic movie without getting into the cheap pornography in the market. I recommend it for couples that need a spark in their lives.
Rating:  - disappointing
First, this is not an erotic film. The title of the film is very misleading. No attractive characters, no hot or explicit sex scene. No intresting subject. I didn't like it at all.
Rating: - Walking Around the Edge of the Real
Elena...is a traveler we first see swimming on a magic-infused night in the moonlit shallows of a remote island. She seeks only a wild erotic encounter with another naked traveler (Lorenzo). The stranger doesn't want to know her name nor she his; its a purely erotic surrender to the power of fantasy uncomplicated by anything real. Both agree that it is the most intense sex they have ever had. Just for fun they exchange a few facts: dates of birth, hometowns, occupations.

Rating: - Explicit but interesting
This film has many extremely explicit sex scenes, especially near the beginning. However, it also has an interesting and "different" type of plotline that is very circular in nature and includes a few somewhat unexpected twists. If you like this movie, or would prefer one that is a bit less explicit, Amantes del cirulo polar is by the same director and has a similar feel and circular plot.
Rating: - Make Way For Lucia
From the directing to the acting to the soundtrack to the cinematography, "Sex and Lucia" is a superb film that you will want to see again and again. It is the rarest of movies in that it appeals equally to the intellect and the senses. The sex scenes, and there are many of them, are as steamy and erotic as any you'll see. But this film is much more. It's a beautiful love story, it is about starting over, it ultimately is about hope.
Julio Medem is a fantastic director as he weaves a ... Read More
