Trailer
ANORGASMIA breaks ground in both style and content, as it is a docufiction sequel to Cris Mazza’s memoir, SOMETHING WRONG WITH HER.
This film is a painfully honest self-exploration -- a woman locked in a lifelong struggle to understand her sexual dysfunction: lack of desire and arousal, and completely anorgasmic.
In her 50s, Cris has recently reunited with a boy from her youth who shares the origins of her sexual struggles. When her sex-life and negative body image don’t improve, she decides to find out what it feels like to be perceived in public as not-a-woman. She finds there are some questions that cannot be answered, and some answers that must simply be accepted.
This film forms an immediate bond with audiences using the simplest and subtlest of attractions: honesty and vulnerability. In test screenings audiences fins themselves involved with the characters and the story in ways that surprise them.
