The Orgasm Counselor

Sexual dysfunction isn’t something you should be ashamed of… It might just need a little coaching to fix. Enter the Orgasm Counselors, an elite group of scientifically trained, sexual educators who operate out of a Skype-like video conferencing center in Tokyo. Can’t keep your jizz in long enough to consummate that budding romance? No problem; after one remote video session with the Orgasm Counselor you’ll be bonking like a pro. Chise Matoba directs this spiritual cousin to her hit film Maid in Japan.

Directed by Sachi Hamano, The Orgasm Counselor leans on a strong ensemble — Sayaka Kitagawa, Mayuko Sasaki, Reiko Kagami — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2004.
