Eroticism in Animated Film

After last year's successful, well-attended Sex and Eroticism in Animated Film, a programme put together from a woman’s and man’s perspectives by Canadian producer Julie Roy and me, this unique programme of films for those over 18 returns. Unlike last year, when we were quite explicit, we are showing slightly more reserved works, which are nevertheless charged with eroticism and sexual fantasies. Most of the films were made by younger-generation female filmmakers ready to speak up openly about sexuality. Let us draw attention to Moms on Fire, a Swedish film about the taboo subject of sexual desire in pregnancy, and The Clitoris, a Canadian work revealing all the secrets of a woman’s body with its up to 8000 nerve endings. Steamy scenes and nudity in animation await at the Friday late-night screening in Kinodvor. Open-minded adults only!
