Elaine, a beautiful young witch, is determined to find a man to love her. In her gothic Victorian apartment she makes spells and potions, and then picks up men and seduces them. However her spells work too well, and she ends up with a string of hapless victims. When she finally meets the man of her dreams, her desperation to be loved will drive her to the brink of insanity and murder. With a visual style that pays tribute to Technicolor thrillers of the 1970s,"The Love Witch" explores female fantasy and the repercussions of pathological narcissism.

Parent Guide

A woman urinates into a jar. the shot shows her thighs and the jar with her urine dripping into it.

In a flashback to an occult ritual early in the film, there is a brief scene where a man kisses the feet of a nude woman.

The film features 2 scenes where the protagonist dances suggestively in front of a man, undressing slowly down to underwear, thighs and garter and butt cheeks seen, breasts mostly obscured by hair but some nipple shown.

Man carries woman to bed to "make love". They kiss and writhe in bed, man is seen from back during sex, bare buttocks, woman's legs spread to accommodate him - no thrusting but fairly intimate. She moans

The film also contains frequent scenes of nudity typically seen in scenes where occult rituals are performed with a pair of fully nude male and female witches visible in the background. Penis, breasts and female/male pubic hair clearly visible. Not sexual - they are just naked. We see this scene several times.

There is also a scene featuring full body nudity where the witches can be seen holding hands and walking around in a circle as part of a ritual. Breasts, pubic hair, buttocks and penises are seen (non-sexual).

In addition, the film features shots of paintings of naked women, including a painting of a naked woman with another man positioned beside her while another man is positioned near her genitalia, and a cartoon of a man penetrating a woman. Several fantasy paintings show bare breasts and pubic hair.
