Description

Whore`s Glory, the third film in Michael Glawogger`s globalization trilogy (following Megacities and Workingman's Death), is an explicit and unflinching exposé of global prostitution. In Bangkok, Thailand, women punch a clock and wait for clients in a brightly lit glass box; in the red-light district of Faridpur, Bangladesh, a madam haggles over the price of a teenage girl; and in the border town of Reynosa, Mexico, crack-addicted women pray to a deity named Lady Death. Winner of the Orizzonti Special Jury Prize at the 2011 Venice Film Festival, Glawogger`s latest larger-than-life documentary is an audacious, non-judgmental study of sexuality, politics, human behavior and the effects of capital and religion on both women and men from starkly different cultures.

Whores Glory

Written on 14. June 2023 by Lexy.
This customer review refers to a alternative version.

Sehr eindrücklich gibt uns Regisseur Michael Glawogger Einblick in das Leben und die Realität von Prostituierten in Thailand, Bangladesch und Mexiko.
Traurig und erschreckend (vor allem in Bangladesch) aber auch erhellend (der Dialog der Thailänderinnen über Inder und Schwarze) und sogar erheiternd (die ältere Prostituierte in Mexiko die die Kunden raffiniert betrügt)...
