Review of Sexo

Sexo (2001)
7/10
Subtitles or Subtext
23 December 2003
Not sure what the filmmaker's intention was with this piece. It seems strange that an anti-pornography piece should feature girl on girl sex and full frontal male nudity.

But then if the filmmaker was just trying to get our attention he succeeded. This short is visually interesting and does raise some questions for the audience to ponder.

I'm just pretty sure that those that would get the most from these questions will never see this film nor would they raise the questions if they did.

I did enjoy the filmmaker's device of subtitling the subtext rather than the dialogue and even the poke at those non-Spanish speaking people in the audience who feel that English subtitles are a god given right.
