Indie Sex

documentary

Three one-hour docs on how sex has been treated in cinema from the beginning to the present. The first dealt with censorship, the second with teen sex, the third with what it called extreme sex...meaning S&M and other type practices.

Good project. Intelligent interviews and a generous selection of clips. They advocate for the idea of social progress and maturity. I'm not sure about that notion overall but in this limited field they had a pretty good case. The censorship battles of the past look particularly childish from today's perspective.
