“Being nude in the flesh doesn’t mean we strip down to our naked hearts,” says an odoriko dancer. But to this film camera, women strippers young and old, open up and reveal more than their skin : an immersion in the intimate world of the theaters’ backstage where they perform, an observation of a melancholic and sensual universe, before it disappears.
