All we need is love
Erotic, Lust, Fetish
In this programme, we will see films that address the feeling of sexual attraction and desire in different ways through the beautiful medium of animation. Some talk about sexuality in an entirely sensual and abstract way. Others use humour, thin sensuality or documentary style to talk about the sexual act. It can happen almost anywhere: on top of a roof, at an animal carnival … and if you are made of wood, it is particularly dangerous if it happens on sandpaper.
