Not Synced
It’s often said that cinema, by its very nature,
-
Not Synced
is voyeuristic
-
Not Synced
because film offers the audience a window
-
Not Synced
into the hidden lives of others.
-
Not Synced
Watching people’s stories on the big
-
Not Synced
and small screen can indeed be
-
Not Synced
fascinating and exhilarating,
-
Not Synced
But the act of looking can also feel
-
Not Synced
uncomfortable, invasive, even violating.
-
Not Synced
Underpinning these uncomfortable moments
-
Not Synced
we can find some alarming messages
-
Not Synced
about the role of consent.
-
Not Synced
To explain, let’s start here
-
Not Synced
in the normal bedroom of a normal boy
-
Not Synced
doing normal boy stuff, normal stuff like
-
Not Synced
spying on the girl next door?!
-
Not Synced
Popular culture is filled with scenes like this one
-
Not Synced
Scenes in which one character, usually a man
-
Not Synced
spies on another character, usually a woman
-
Not Synced
without that person’s knowledge or consent
