Les Travailleu(r)ses du Sexe
82' / 2009
Jean-Michel Carré
Considered the oldest job in the world, prostitution has always remained an “obscure object of hate and desire”. Since, what is known as Sarkozy law was passed in 2003, both women and men have claimed the right to freely sell their bodies. At the same time, the Market economy is using pseudo sexual liberation to justify the legalisation of this intimate market place.
Words and disturbing habits, stigmatised by moralising judgements, make us think about men and women relationship, sexuality and its control over power.
