The Genesis Children

The Genesis Children is a 1972 art film by Lyric Films International. The movie premiered in August 1972 in Los Angeles, but was withdrawn within a few weeks due to lack of public acceptance. Although it was called "very benign" by the US rating administration, it received an X rating. It has remained controversial ever since, because of some lengthy full nudity scenes of teenage and preteen boys. Synopsis The plot of the movie is non-chronological, as it attempts to mimick the spontaneity of juvenile thinking, and thus at first sight may appear convoluted and rather loose.
