For the Screening, Director’s Talk, and Reception of Orgasm, Inc.

Please join The Wolfsonian–FIU this Thursday, April 1st at 7pm for the screening, director’s talk, and reception of Orgasm, Inc. Filmmaker Liz Canner will lead a discussion on the search for the female Viagra drug and the medicalization of female sexuality following the screening of her documentary Orgasm, Inc. (2009, USA, Liz Canner, 78 minutes, color, DVD). The film offers a provocative look at how pharmaceutical companies are willing to risk women’s health and happiness for billions in profits to treat the newest disease, Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD), as they attempt to create the female version of Viagra. Following the film, join the filmmaker at the World Erotic Art Museum, located at 1205 Washington Ave., for a reception and the opportunity to view the WEAM collection. The Wolfsonian talk/film is free for members and the FIU community, $10 all others. WEAM reception: $10.
