Overview

Set in the year 2117, The Curious Female imagines a society where sex is strictly for recreation, and expressing love through intimacy is not only taboo but illegal. In this computer-controlled future, a group of curious rebels secretly gather to watch forbidden films from the 1960s—movies that explore the concept of love and morality in sex. The act of viewing these relics becomes a subversive thrill, as authorities crack down on anyone daring to challenge the established order. As these clandestine screenings continue, the film playfully explores themes of censorship, social engineering, and the ever-evolving rules of desire, all within a psychedelic, sexploitation-tinged vision of tomorrow.
