The Hidden Side of the Bottom

Directed by Caroline Pochon and Allan Rothschild

With Jean-Luc Hennig, Alina Reyes, Edward Lucie Smith, Claudine Cohen and Jean-Paul Goude

All over the world, since the dawn of humanity, the buttocks have been the subject of innumerable representations. From the Louvre to the Metropolitan, on the street and at the beach, through cinema and advertising, this film lays bare the evolution of our collective fantasies revolving around the bottom. Paleo-anthropology, psychoanalysis, and the history of art all give us a glimpse of the hidden side of our bottoms.
