La chiave (internationally released as The Key) is a 1983 Italian erotic film directed by Tinto Brass . It is based on the novel Kagi by Jun'ichirō Tanizaki.[1] The film arose some scandal in reason of explicit nudes (defined by critics as "gynecological")[2] and sex scenes involving a well-known actress as Stefania Sandrelli.[2][3] It obtained a great commercial success.[2][3]
