Trilogy of Life is a trilogy of films by Italian director Pier Paolo Pasolini.
These three films centered on sex-laden folkloric ribaldry, such as Il fiore delle mille e una notte (Arabian Nights, 1974), Boccaccio's Decameron (1971) and Chaucer's Canterbury Tales (1972).
His final work, the only one from the expected Trilogy of Death, Salò (1975), went far beyond what most movie-goers could stomach at the time, because of its scenes of intensely sadistic graphic violence.
