The Taste of Desire

The oyster as a symbol of desire, passion and its fulfilment. This is the theme of this visually vivid, sensually rich documentary. Sex, luxury, desire and sensuality. All symbolized by a tiny sea animal hidden in a massive pearl shell. In her documentary, director Willemiek Kluijfhout explores the very essence of human desire, but above all through the fate of an ambitious chef, a professional diver or a burlesque dancer.
