Über diesen Film

Exposed delves deep into the heart of burlesque with a focus on eight female and male artists who use their nudity to transport us beyond sexual and social taboos. It's powerful, enlightening, humourous, and it challenges traditional notions of body, gender, and sexuality. The cutting edge performers combine politics, satire, and physical comedy to question the very concept of "normal". The body types of the performers range from statuesque to transgender to disabled, and their personalities from sensational to scintillating. Through them we get to examine our own inhibitions. These performers are part of a unique subculture yet they come from surprisingly diverse economic, social and political backgrounds. As they peel away their clothes -- describing their journeys and commenting on their performances -- they peel away our preconceptions and inhibitions. Ancient moral, religious and sexual stereotypes are seen from new perspectives and a new generation of the cultural avant-garde comes to light. Featuring the infamous Dirty Martini, Julie Atlas Muz, Mat Fraser, World Famous *BOB*, Bambi the Mermaid, Rose Wood, Bunny Love and Tigger!. Watch them take hold of a classic, yet taboo, art form and drive it to extremes. © B Productions & Schulberg Productions
