    Bette GORDON 1983 USA b/w 100min English DCP
    Christine, a bright and unassuming young woman, takes a job selling tickets at a porno theater near Times Square. Instead of distancing herself from the dark and erotic nature of this milieu, Christine soon develops an obsession that begins to consume her life. Through this sexually-charged tale of a woman's journey of self-discovery, Variety challenges common notions about feminism and pornography.
