A mixture of abstract images, as though straight out of a Man Ray painting, a large mouth in the foreground with red lips slowly devours a raw liver and then proceeds to eat a postcard. Meanwhile romantic Neapolitan songs are heard in the background. As Andrea Giunta says: They function simultaneously as a hyperbole of the feminine in a register steeped in pop aesthetics (perfect lips wearing lipstick), but in which the meat introduces a highly transgressive element with eschatological tension.
