"Carnalita" is a giallo without violence.
Don't worry, though: it makes up for the lack of violence with a healthy dose of nudity.
Typically, the movie is about horrible, faithless rich people - in particular an average looking middle aged guy who has his pick of a bunch of sexy ladies half his age.
In this one, the rich guy's wife is sick, so he employs a beautiful nurse played by Femi Benussi whom he immediately seduces. The nurse falls for him, but he already has his sights set on other women who he meets after cheating a count out of his seaside chalet.
The pace is slow - some would say tediously - and the movie doubles down with some plot twists right at the end, revealing its debt to giallo, however I was bored by then and not really paying attention. It felt like too much too late. The movie clearly wanted to be a softcore romp in the sand. The plot - what plot there is - felt like an encumbrance.
