The Culture of Sex

Episode 1

Tokyo

A journey through the varied industry existing in Tokyo. In Japan the population is declining and apparently their inhabitants are increasingly losing interest in the sentimental relationships. Drivers experiment with toys, dolls, and bars where you pay for a hug or a conversation.

Rio de Janeiro

In Carioca paradise, drivers let themselves be carried away by the sensuality that weighs on the atmosphere. From the beach to the living room beauty, and from there to the gym and the surgeon's office, plastic Brazilians set records for plastic surgery and rejuvenating, because they worship beauty.

Episode 4

Istanbul

Drivers submerge through the streets of Istanbul to discover and learn the ways of living sexuality in a society in which East and West mix and coexist harmoniously. Through daily characters and activists, they confront the two sides of the coin, what the most conservative Turks question about the way sexuality is lived in the West, what traditions they try to keep alive.

Shanghai

Shanghai has been the main scene of the sexual revolution that began in China more or less a decade ago. Some of the things they find: the industrial production of erotic dolls and sex toys; the state-run sex shops, the practice of prostitution despite its illegality, and the possible extinction of the institution of marriage and family in a society that economically lives in maximum prosperity.
