Queer

A documentary exploring the pro-sex movement over the past three decades through interviews with activists, sex workers and performers alongside archive footage of actions and excerpts from feminist pornography. The pro-sex feminist movement began in the United States in the 1980s. Among other things it asserts that pornography must be taken outside of patriarchal control, and that in the hands of women and sexual minorities it can become a tool of liberation. Despentes (Baise Moi) takes a wide ranging look at the movement, conducting interviews with key figures in the USA, France and Spain, and mapping the evolution of pro-sex, or post-porn, from its pioneers like Annie Sprinkle to newer European work like Emilie Jouvet’s Too Much Pussy! Thought provoking and explicit, Mutantes is part of a very queer feminist revolution.

A maverick artist foremost, Jarman’s attention to detail and unconventional approach to filmmaking has been matched by few others.
