Film Description:
"Featuring porn-stars-turned-filmmakers Annie Sprinkle and Candida Royale; photographer Bettina Rheims; novelist Pauline Réage and others, Erotica explores the range and variety of the 'female gaze' as these artists reveal their fantasy lives and intimate secrets in discussions about art and their personal lives. Produced, directed and edited by women surrounded by an all female crew, this feature documentary also delves into their struggles and conflicts, exploring female desire in all of its complexity. Erotica is an all too rare look by women into the shadowy world where pornography and art coalesce."
