Coisas Eróticas (lit. 'Erotic Things') is a 1982 Brazilian pornographic film. Composed of three episodes, it was directed by Raffaele Rossi and Laerte Calicchio.[1][2] Released during the military dictatorship, it is considered the first explicit sex film produced in Brazil and remains one of the highest-grossing films in the history of Brazilian cinema, with more than 20 million viewers.[1] In 1984, a sequel titled Coisas Eróticas II was released.[3]
After masturbating in the bathroom while leafing through an erotic magazine, Eduardo meets a beautiful mulatto model at a traffic light, who invites him to spend a weekend at her farm. Once there, Eduardo has sex with the model, while Arlete, her daughter, and her friend masturbate each other.[1]

Production
Director Raffaele Rossi was born in Sant'Arsenio, Italy, and arrived in Brazil at the age of 16, where he began working as a cinema projectionist.[2] In the mid-1960s, he founded a small film production company, Companhia Cinematográfica Pindorama, with his friend Inrineu Travallini (a.k.a. Toni Cardi), and later created another, Panther's Cine Som.[2] His film career became associated with Boca do Lixo, a stronghold of Brazilian underground cinema, where he shot some successful films at the box office, but largely ignored by mainstream critics, such as Pura Como Um Anjo... Será Virgem? (1976) and Roberta, A Moderna Gueixa do Sexo (1978).[2]
With the release of the film In the Realm of the Senses (1976) in Brazil under the military dictatorship in 1980, Rossi saw the opportunity to release a sexually explicit film, which he produced with Laerte Calicchio.[1]
