nudity | A boy and his mother briefly discuss whether our not they would prostitute themselves, for the sake of the other. A bunch of prostitutes are seen in some sort of outdoor orgy. Several women are seen topless, as well as another woman groping her own breast. A woman is seen giving a woman oral sex (no nudity). A man is seen trying to rape a woman; he's forcing himself upon her and one of her breasts is seen. He is stopped before it goes any further though. A prostitute is beaten, and later she states that the pain in her face hurts too much so she "won't be able to suck." Recurring themes throughout the film include prostitution and transvestitism. There are implications of a homosexual relationship between two women (with largely differing ages), although nothing is ever shown. There is very explicit and blunt sexual discussions, one in particular about halfway through ("I've sucked a lot of cocks. I've even sucked them in public." "It's been years since I've sucked a cock." "I love the word cock. And prick!" Etc.) One of the main characters is a transvestite prostitute. This is discussed in one scene. Another woman grabs her/his fake breasts. She also asks to see her/his penis ("Let me see your cock "), and she/he responds with "I'll show it to you later and you can lick it." A man asks a transvestite to give him a blowjob. She agrees, although they never get around to doing it. The conversation settling the agreement is very sexually explicit. |
