The third film in in a series on body image by acclaimed director Jesse Epstein, this short film follows Wet Dreams and False Images, and The Guarantee, in probing society’s perverse obsession with physical perfection. This time Jesse takes her camera into a mannequin factory to uncover the making of the “perfect woman”.
Not at all clinical or TLC-lite, the film mixes medias and utilizes a new hypnotic soundtrack heard on this version to create a lyrical meditation on the building process- including an interesting take by the manufacturer on the purpose of creating the unattainable.
