Romina Power (18-year-old daughter of Tyrone Power) stars as Justine, a nubile young virgin cast out of a French orphanage and thrust into a depraved world of prostitution, predatory lesbians, a fugitive murderess (Mercedes McCambridge), bondage, branding, and one supremely sadistic monk (an outrageous performance by jack Palance). It's a twisted tale of strange desires, perverse pleasures and the ultimate corruption of innocence as told by the Marquis de Sade. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)

The co-production Marquis de Sade's Justine, in which, for example, Liechtenstein also participated, is a disappointment and a failure to meet expectations for me. I'm not saying that de Sade is a great author, or that his works are so controversial these days based on the reputation they've earned, but Jesús Franco conceived the film as a historical romance without a plot, which bored me. And two hours of boredom is simply too much.
