One of the most striking elements of the 1981 production is its tone. It carries a distinct European sensibility—reminiscent of the sex-positive movements in Sweden and Germany—that treats the human body with a level of frankness that was still considered taboo in many parts of the United States. The documentary does not shy away from showing the physical reality of its subject matter.
