These days, sex doesn't just sell, it saturates our culture. In the age of runaway social media and "sexting," raunchy rap songs on pop radio and hardcore pornography at the click of a mouse--what's it like to be a woman? A girl? A teenage boy? Their parents? In this feature documentary, the directors follow a trio of characters to reveal the toll all this titillation is taking on America and forces viewers to get comfortable having the uncomfortable conversations.
Twelve-year-old Winnie is a bright and precocious proto-feminist dividing time between Mom's house and Dad's in New York City, but not long after the bat mitzvah celebration that marks her entry into adulthood, the Lady Gaga-loving youngster starts growing up faster than her parents can handle. Pressured by remarks from her porn-loving boyfriend, 22-year-old Laura is spending thousands on surgery to have a top-shelf "designer vagina." And though she's officially retired from the adult film industry, 32-year-old Nakita Kash is making her living teaching housewives and college girls how to pole dance like a porno pro.
Sexy Baby examines the seismic shift in our society in an age where courtship has been replaced by sexting and kids have access to online porn before sex ed.
"Just when you think we've come so far, we're reminded that our society still has a female problem. The fact that the system has skillfully convinced many women to participate in their own demise is even more frightening. You have not seen a film like this. There is no film like this." - Michael Moore
"A real eye-opener." - New York Magazine
"Sexy Baby is an important--and at times chilling--film meant to provoke intelligent debate." - Marlow Stern, The Daily Beast
"Provocative and highly disturbing...I'm a mother of two teenage daughters, and this is the scariest thing I've ever seen." - Jane Rosenthal, Tribeca Film Festival co-founder
