Pier Paolo Pasolini writes, directs and stars in this Italian adaptation of Chaucer's medieval poem. The film includes eight of Chaucer's 24 stories - those of the Merchant, Friar, Cook, Miller, Wife of Bath, Reeve, Pardoner and Summoner - and ends with Pasolini's vision of hell, as a group of pilgrims make their way to Canterbury.
