I Am Curious (Yellow)
Jag är nyfiken - en film i gult
1967 · Film · 122 min
Directed by Vilgot Sjöman
Lena, aged twenty, wants to know all she can about life and reality. She collects information on everyone and everything, storing her findings in an enormous archive. She experiments with relationships, political activism, and meditation. Meanwhile, the actors, director and crew are shown in a humorous parallel plot about the making of the film and their reactions to the story and each other. Nudity, explicit sex, and controversial politics kept this film from being shown in the US while its seizure by Customs was appealed.

And that's how i met your mother...
No sorry wrong meme. That's how "in the realm of the senses" (1976) got made, and subsequently banned pretty much everywhere for public screening except at independent film clubs, who have screened it, and "I am curious, yellow" continuously ever since.
(Yes, I believe I screened this at a UK uni film club. The late 1970s, the BFI lent 16mm prints out in cardboard boxes and we just.. ran the reels)
