"Stories from the clit," Gender Reel's second production, takes the Vagina Monologues to the next level by documenting first-hand, true accounts of individual "clit" stories. Anyone who self-identifies as having a "clit" regardless of one's birth gender is welcome to participate. This includes trans people, gender queer/variant folks, and cis-gender individuals. Participants will be asked to give consent and need to be comfortable talking openly about their unique "clit," stories publicly.
If you have a self-identified "clit" and want to talk about it then this is the production for you! The film will contain moderate nudity and include video shots of various "clits" regardless of type, size and/or shape.
Interested "clit" story tellers should contact Joe @ sftc@gmail.com. Filming for this production starts in September 2013.
