The story

What Is The Wild and the Naked About?

The premise of The Wild and the Naked without spoilers.

Paulette, a French nude model living in the United States with her photographer husband, drops him at his studio and heads to a nudist photo shoot. While on a break she drifts asleep and dreams of a night‑club visit, hitch‑hiking, and a frantic chase through woods and along a riverbank by a deranged would‑be rapist who ties her up. A handsome stranger rescues her, only for her to be pursued by an ape and later watch the man briefly abducted by four naked native women who drag him into the river and dance to rock‑and‑roll.
