In her shocking and often hilarious documentary, filmmaker Liz Canner takes a job editing erotic videos for a drug trial at a pharmaceutical company. Her employer is developing what it hopes will be a female Viagra: a drug for women that will win FDA approval to treat a new disease: female sexual dysfunction (FSD). Liz gains permission to film the company for her own documentary. Initially, she plans to create a movie about science and pleasure, but she soon begins to suspect that her employer, along with a cadre of other medical companies, might be trying to take advantage of women (and potentially endanger their health) in pursuit of billion-dollar profits. Sponsored by Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (Naturally). Post-film event: discussion with filmmaker Liz Canner. 75 minutes. Film website
- Sunday, March 28 6:15 pm @ Pavilion Auditorium
