Synopsis

Laura Lepinski, a struggling sex therapist, practicing in the West End of Vancouver, has just turn 40 and so has her sex drive. Determined to experience her first ever orgasm, she decides to explore a world of sexual techniques and devices to help both her and her clients. Though, the truth might just lie in her inner child, an apparition that has recently come to help Laura find her liberation. But of course it’s all a matter of perspective which Laura, her inner child, and her clients, will soon discover as the skeletons keep popping out of their mental closets.

    Brilliant idea! I see so much potential to explore the concept of sexuality and dysfunction in a proactive way, through the eyes (or perhaps..sighs) of the lead character. I can hardly wait to see this go into production!

    way to vulgar for my taste. I do not think I would want to see this on prime time.

    Sexual issues not only about sex.. Religion, cultural, gender inequality, stress, and list goes on.. A comedy with intelligence - I love it.. But is Canada ready for nothing more than broad comedy?

    Thanks for the feedback everyone.. The general idea is to comically explore sex not sell it..

    I feel like this is one of the 99% of instances where breaking the fourth wall is a bad idea.

    OK, I've gone though a bunch of these and I'm starting to lose hope. Just because something is about "sex" doesn't make it funny or good just obscene
