>“A Rigo BoSD underwear billboard, with half nude, hard body
>models, acts as the needle by which 26-year-old Bolivian
>director Rodrigo Bellott weaved a stream of sexually dependent
>stories together in his first feature film, Dependencia Sexual.
>
>As a needle would, this billboard pricks at the five
>protagonists, who battle with the bipolar reality of wanting
>to keep the sacredness of their bodies in a lascivious,
>obscene world.
>
> From the brothels and nightclubs of Santa Cruz, Bolivia to the
>United States’s fraternity boy lifestyle of sucking beers and
>hiding homosexuality, Bellott portrays the use and abuse of
>sexual intercourse on a cross-cultural level” (Raymond Beltran).
