Even now, in times of an ubiquitous sexualisation of everyday life, the female orgasm continues to remain a mystery.

Removed from pornography and excessive eroticism, they open up in indirect conversation with director-narrator Annie Gisler, who illustrates the sensual narratives of her protagonists with poetic, abstract and metaphorical images.

A dialogue among women, for women. And men.
