VENUS - Let's talk about sex

An unexpectedly open-ended film-survey, an intimate confession of Danish women, is based on deep, intimate female desire and frustration with their own sexuality. From penetration to voyeurism, from fellatio to masturbation, a studio arrangement of female desires spreads out against the white background of their own fantasy. One hundred women, one hundred encyclopedias of wild and conventional sexual desires, dreams, and phobias that span between language, description, and revelation of one's own body and nudity. The intimate narrative, groping in words and feelings, gradually transforms into a manifestation of feminine uniqueness, malleable sexuality, and the erotic identity of the goddesses of everyday sensuality."In our preparation, we thought of it as a slow seduction. The original idea was to hold this casting as a research for a film where we would sort of reinterpret and reenact sex scenes based on real women’s fantasies and stories. Later we decided, that this was going to be a film." (Mette Carla Albrechtsen)
