Program Note
A fossilized piece of tissue thought to have been used in Africa is discovered. A scholar argues it was used for a male ape’s masturbation, but his assistant contradicts this idea, claiming it was actually used by a female ape. This sex comedy, 2001: A space odysSEX, parodies one of the greatest Sci-Fi masterpieces in cinema history and evokes laughter through explicit sexual humor. As the title might suggest, expect cheap Special Effects and other common B-movie traits. (Gina KANG)
