A six-part documentary series about women and sexuality from acclaimed journalist and filmmaker Francine Pelletier. Everywhere you look, women are flaunting, claiming and exhibiting their sexuality. In books, in documentaries, in movies and television, and in the work place, women as sexual conquerors are no longer an anomaly, but the norm. Billed as the 'second sexual revolution,'women today appear to be taking over when it comes to sex. It is the most visible change in women's lives in the last 50 years. In fact, nothing has changed quite as much, or as quickly, as attitudes towards women and sex. But how does the cultural explosion of female sexuality translate in the lives of real women? What does it mean and how far does it really go?
Six women tell it like it is, reflecting on various aspects of sex, love, and lust. Their stories are riveting, funny and exuberant and, at times heartbreaking. These personal histories are consistently remarkable, frank, explicit, startling, and, above all, human.
The women reflect a wide spectrum of ages, personalities, sexual preferences and experiences, and social, economic and cultural backgrounds. Men and women alike will be amazed at how frank these women are in sharing their most personal stories, the pivotal moments in their sexual history, and their most intimate needs and desires.
