Love in 3-D at the Bryson (original German title: Liebe in drei Dimensionen) is a 1973 West German adult comedy film directed by Walter Boos. It is historically notable for being shot in 70mm (specifically using the Triarama process)

The film is a sexploitation comedy featuring multiple erotic vignettes. It gained significant international success, partly due to the novelty of combining “eroticism and 3-D”.

In filmmaking, Triarama is an alternative name for a specific three-dimensional (3D) film process officially known as Hi-Fi Stereo 70 or Stereovision 70. This technical process allows for the recording and projection of stereoscopic images using a single camera and a specialized 65mm or 70mm film format.

How the Triarama Process Works – The process creates a 3D effect by simulating human depth perception through the following steps: Dual Image Capture: A single camera uses two lenses spaced at a distance similar to human eyes (approximately 63.5mm) to record two separate images simultaneously.

Anamorphic Squeeze: These two images (left and right perspectives) are placed side-by-side on a single 65mm negative frame and subjected to an anamorphic squeeze.

Stereoscopic Projection: During exhibition, the film is projected onto a screen where the two images are “unsqueezed.” Audience members wear polarised 3D glasses to ensure each eye sees only its corresponding image, which the brain then merges to perceive depth.

Release: While shot in 70mm, it was frequently screened in a 35mm single-strip 3D format for exhibition, as was the Bryson season.

Cinematography: The film is characterized by extreme 3D effects designed to jump out of the screen, including scenes with twigs hitting a car window, a girl on a swing moving toward the camera, and various objects thrusted toward the audience.

Cast: The film starred Ingrid Steeger, Christina Lindberg, and Elisabeth Volkmann.

Season - Love in 3D commenced at the Bryson on July 5th 1974 and ran for a six week season, concluding on Aug 15, 1974.
