About The Project

The sexual revolution started over forty years ago, but female sexuality is still a taboo subject. This film opens up a conversation about sexuality that is long overdue. It also deals with the universal issues of shame and self-acceptance. Claire is unknowingly ashamed of her own sexuality, and it has affected both her physical and mental well-being. Claire embarks on a courageous journey of excruciating vulnerability, ultimately leading to self-acceptance and independence. No longer reliant on men for her sexual gratification and free of her family's sexual repression, Claire takes her power back. Her struggles along the way are equally hilarious and moving.
