...about personal freedom," soberly explains Director Tom O'Horgan, a chichi con artist from off-off-Broadway. "It's about the responsibility of freedom." Futi might also just as well be a propaganda film for the anti-Anti-Vivisection Society, a moving plea for the tolerance of sodomists, or a fearless indictment of soil erosion.
