Top-heavy with wild action scenes and female pulchritude, this ruotine italian costume adventure is set in the 7th Century B.C. on the island of Lesbos, where the immortal poetess Sappho (Tina Louise) is leading a revolt against the corrupt government of mytilene.
Aiding her in overthrowing the yoke of tyranny is the handsome Phaon (Kerwin Mathews).
For some reason it is the temple of Aphrodite that is the focus of attention in this supposed battle for the rights of the ordinary people, and not the temple of Mars.
Sappho's sexual orientation is a moot point.
Tina Louise plays wonderfully Sappho of Lesbos; the place where she was staying as a priestess was a fortess next to the ocean surrounded by a moat.
It was described as being an island within an island, and if anybody should know about spending a lot of time on an island, it should be her.
And yes, there is a lesbian subplot, plus costumes that are daring even for this genre of movies
