Emmanuelle is a beautiful young model and lives in Bangkok together with her husband Jean, who's several years older. She likes him because he's taught her much, and he likes her because she's learning so well - and wants to often.

Roland Lethem's most (in)famous movie is an experiment in insult and abuse: the abuse of victims by the police, the abuse of humans by society, the abuse of the spectator by the director. Heavily inspired by the style and politics of the surrealists and Japanese counter-culture-cinema.
A disturbing experimental horror film that delves into humanity's dark psyche and lets us experience death from within. A violent and extreme mindfuck. shot exclusively on 16mm and super8. As beautifully grainy, grimy and poetic as it is disquieting.

A tragicomedy that explores ideas never touched before. “Because death really suits some people well”
This avant-garde sex film is a tribute to the films of Alberto Cavallone, directed by Morgana Mayer, whose Sexual Labyrinth was shown at BUT last year. Just like that film, Female Touch is a blasphemous, dreamlike movie that offers a queer and kinky vision of womanhood.
