Synopsis
In this shocking and hilarious documentary, filmmaker Liz Canner
takes a job editing erotic videos for a drug trial for a
pharmaceutical company. Her
employer is developing what they hope will be the first Viagra drug
for women to win FDA approval to treat a new disease: Female Sexual
Dysfunction (FSD).
Liz obtains the company’s permission to make her own documentary,
initially to create a movie about science and pleasure. However her
suspicions are aroused that her employer, along with a host of other
medical companies, might be trying to take advantage of women (and
potentially endanger their health) in pursuit of billion dollar
profits.
ORGASM INC. is a powerful look inside the medical industry and the
marketing campaigns that are literally and figuratively reshaping
our everyday lives around health, illness, desire – and that
ultimate moment: orgasm.
