"R" niin kuin RealDoll

Post by Hotzenplotz »

http://vimeo.com/32227737

a short documentary (and a rather sad one, considering the life the doll has to live...) It's, as you've already guessed, in Finnish, but there are English subtitles.

And here is a short interview with the director: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etrawZ1z ... re=related

Both clips aren't that interesting. This is so to speak for completeness' sake.

This is the kind of perspective that make me uncomfortable as a women to think of. Where as individual doll ownership is endearing, a one doll brothel and more insulting. Though it is a doll, that is just sterilized and hung up to dry for the next patron, it's so close to the already disposable women still working in prostitution. Their are men who would see it no differently, but a real woman can carry memories, have a family, a past, goals and dreams. So yeah, seeing the shape of a female used in this one doll brothel can have some triggering nightmares. Either way I liked the film.


Like Amber Doll from feminist performer Amber who created a doll of herself to place in public scenarios. It was basically her likeness being groped and molested by anyone who'd like to and would say things like they wished they'd could do this to a real woman so easily. I don't think it helped her learning what she did about the common man on the street.
