Recovering from a heartbreaking divorce, independent filmmaker and son-of-an-Italian-Prince Tao Ruspoli takes to the road to talk to his relatives, advice columnists, psychologists, historians, anthropologists, artists, philosophers, sex workers, sex therapists, and ordinary couples about love, sex & monogamy in our culture. What he discovers about his very unconventional family, and about the history and psychology of love and marriage leads him to question the ideal of monogamy, and the traditional family values that go with it.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Decent and fast paced documentary exploring the history and purpose of marriage within western culture primarily. There is an attempt to keep it unbiased but I felt that there were few voices for monogamy that were interviewed. Nevertheless, it thus raise thought provoking questions about it and what it means to our society. Half-way through it at 47 minutes, a statement blew my mind, that marriage in US part of marriage industrial complex and more importantly, the biggest group in poverty are single mothers, bigger than other groups combined, and the government is often acting as a pimp by trying to get them married off to take them off social welfare rolls. In effect trying to privatize the expense. It doesn't help when that statement could also apply to many community groups and organizations as well. Maybe there is some truth to it all after all?

I like documentaries,especially historic and biographical ones, and putting all the kinda''-gami's'' and diversity of sexual relationships through history under the spotlight,well ,its very difficult to make it work. this film though,has a wonderful amazing understory, very nice use of visual editing, very good narration, beautiful scenery and filmography, and the best of all ,NO SOLUTIONS. this is a film with very little adult content,and should be seen by everyone from 12 and beyond
