Antoinette, Linda, Zandi and Shameena. Four
young women, who grew up in four radically
different worlds explore one topic ' their
sexuality. Through a series of sensitively
dramatised, though sometimes disturbing, interviews
they recount pivotal moments of trauma and
ecstasy in their sexual development. Along
the way ' interspersed with street takes of
teens airing their views on sex ' taboo subjects
such as abuse, child masturbation and HIV
disclosure are addressed with refreshing candour.
What makes their stories more compelling is
the absence of victimhood and finger pointing
' these women have the courage to confront
the dark side and celebrate the joy of sex.
An inspiring affirmation of one of the most
powerful forces at work in the human race.
