Controversies and legal

Controversy

Diva Futura has caused some moral panic among certain Italian Catholic groups, and has had to defend itself against legal action for obscenity, most notably in 1986 when Curve deliziose was released. Ilona Staller (already a member of the Italian Parliament) formed the Partito dell'Amore in 1991, switching from the Partito Radicale (although this political activity was not officially linked to Diva Futura).
