TAPECODE 382.02

A look at sexuality, censorship and desire, through the conversations, relationships and fantasies of three women. Emerging out of recent debates on sex, censorship and representation, this video is both analytical and humourous as it touches upon the personal and public aspects of women's sexuality: how fear and poverty interrupt pleasure; how the state constructs sexual meanings; how women, individually and collectively, are changing these meanings.
