Sex&TheInternet

2020 · 74 min

A candid, talk-driven documentary that feels like an intimate and thoughtful conversation about how the internet reshapes sex and selfhood.

Overview
For some, the darkest mechanisms of the Internet have been a curse, as in the most serious cases of revenge porn that have occupied the pages of national newspapers in recent years, while for others the sharing of one's own individual experience has become a means of daily confrontation with those who have a similar life path or simply for a progressive normalization of life stories much more common than we believe. In this documentary film girls and guys talk about their sexual sphere on social networks, some in a way more playful, others making it an art, still others for informational purposes, while some even built a career. Thanks to each of their points of view, an overall picture of the relationship between sexuality and the internet emerges for the new generations.
