CGiii Comment

"Tocándonos más allá del placer"

In Four Verses of Self Pleasure, seven women and one non binary person with different sexual orientations, age categories, and racial heritage embark on a journey of deeper understanding regarding their relationship with masturbation. The protagonists share personal experiences orally as well as through the practice of writing, allowing them to dig deeper into their memories, emotions and personal transitions regarding a subject that for all of them has been, at some point in their lives, a taboo. The central metaphor and leitmotif of the documentary is a washing machine. Its traditional symbolism is, however, altered: it is no longer an object that represents women's oppression through the sexist division of gendered tasks, but empowers the protagonists, allowing them to wash away the stigma and shame surrounding female sexual pleasure and instead inciting open communication on the subject.
