“Do You Have A Dirty Mind?”

A youthful bohemian satire, a story of alienated nonconformists, a Thelma & Louise (“buddy love”/“girls on the lam”) story, a sexploitation and S/M romp, a lampoon of auteur filmmaking, a satire of media celebrity and “true-life” tabloid sensationalism. An anti-consumerist pulp epic that could be labeled a black comedy.

Welcome to the psychosexual world of
PERMANENT OBSCURITY

Inspired by the underground sexploitation films of the 1960s, this bold updating of the “roughie” subgenre largely takes place in the East Village (ca. 2006), and it chronicles the rise and fall of a unique and intense friendship.

Dolores and Serena, two chemically dependent, down-and-out artists set out to take control of their lives by making a fetish-noir/femdom movie.

Of course, things don't exactly turn out as planned.
