The Blue Balloon (1971)

Lisbeth's husband has been drafted and she becomes alone when he is gone. She gets into the hands of a lesbian woman who abuses her and takes her to an isolated farm where several men use her.

A bleak tale of a girl's nightmarish decent into a life of degradation and prostitution. A Danish production of the early 1970s, the film clearly illustrates that Europeans are in no way more "civilized" than garbage-minded Americans. While European soft-core has a reputation for high-gloss and soft-focus, The Blue Balloon proves that Euro-XXX can be as grimy and hard-hitting as our own backstreet variety.
