Story Synopsis

Montenegro (or Pigs And Pearls) is a boisterous adult arch comedy about neglected and sexually frustrated housewife Marilyn Jordan (Susan Anspach) who deserts her dysfunctional family to join a group of exotic Yugoslav immigrants at a ramshackle enclave called the Zanzibar. There, Marilyn finally feels a sense of unquestionable welcome from such an unlikely group and becomes spiritually and sexually liberated by their free spirits, while feeding her insanely dangerous and self-centered desires.
