A wildly anarchic, surreal comedy anthology that uses absurdist vignettes and visual gags to satirize sexual taboos and social hypocrisy with relentless irreverence.

A collection of seven vignettes, which each address a question concerning human sexuality. From aphrodisiacs to sexual perversion to the mystery of the male orgasm, characters like a court jester, a doctor, a queen and a journalist adventure through lab experiments and game shows, all seeking answers to common questions that many would never ask.
