Run Time:
81 minutes
Let’s talk about sex. Are you uncomfortable? Maybe that’s because most Americans have been brought up in a culture where sex is seen as a sinful and shameful act we do in the shadows. Additionally, because 49 out of 50 states do not require medically accurate, comprehensive sex education, there is a ton of misinformation in this country about sex—which might explain why the United States has one of the highest rates of teen pregnancy in the developed world. Obviously, we have a lot of issues when it comes to sex. Filmmaker Alex Liu is on a mission to sort it all out by talking with researchers, educators, and Pornhub data analysts, who can give us the naked truth. As a gay man raised in an Asian Catholic household, Liu uses his personal struggles with his own sexuality to start this important conversation. An honest, bold, and funny documentary about sex, A SEXPLANATION aims to strip away the sexual embarrassment so much of us carry—and to create shamefree and effective sex education for all. — G.S.
