Roosevelt Island Women's Movie Group Showing Shocking And Hilarious Documentary On Female Viagra Drug Thursday Night January 23 - Orgasm Inc

From the Roosevelt Island Women's Movie Group:

On Thursday, January 23, 2014 at 7:00 pm the Roosevelt Island Women's Movie Group will show its next movie in the Party Room at 425 Main Street.

In this shocking and hilarious documentary, filmmaker Liz Canner takes a job editing videos for a drug trial for a pharmaceutical company. Her employer is developing what they hope will be the first Viagra drug for women that wins FDA approval to treat a new disease: Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD).

Liz gains permission to film the company for her own documentary. Initially, she plans to create a movie about science and pleasure, but she soon begins to suspect that her employer, along with a cadre of other medical companies, might be trying to take advantage of women (and potentially endanger their health) in pursuit of billion dollar profits. This is a powerful look inside the medical industry and the marketing campaigns that are literally and figuratively reshaping our everyday lives around health, illness, desire — and that ultimate moment.

The name of the movie says it all: ORGASM, INC.
