“Interesting, informative and amusing” John Griffin,
The Gazette.
“Very instructive” Odile Tremblay, Le Devoir.
Welcome to the world of pornography as created and viewed by women.
Bad Girl globetrots from Quebec to California, from Denmark to France
and back again taking a hard look at the negative taboos associated
with female sexuality.
From pro-porn sex-activists like Annie Sprinkle and controversial
French filmmakers like Catherine Breillat, to feminist philosophers,
sexologists and porn producers, the film raises important questions
surrounding pornography and the burgeoning number of women behind
the cameras.
Encompassing racy footage in the course of its own frank investigation
of overt female sexuality, Bad Girl promotes thinking about the
perspective of pornography, its functions, who's speaking in it,
and to whom. It reveals intelligently and engagingly how far we've
come and how far we've got to go.
