Overview

A charismatic leader and a high-spirited student group are on holiday in Italy.

    An interesting movie made back in the late 60s/early 70s (late 1966 to early 1973) that depicts a friendly group of eight boys; children and teens (aged around ten to nineteen years old) who enjoy going around naked. _"The Genesis Children"_ has quite an enjoyable and innocent concept but it could be a lot better.
