Kama Sutra - Secrets to the Art of Love

Several couples demonstrate 50 positions of lovemaking from the Kama Sutra while an off-screen narrator, a woman with a soft voice, describes each position, provides its name, and notes its pleasures, sensations, intensities, originality, and caveats. The primary set is a large bedroom, with the bed in the center; the walls are yellow, the lighting soft; mirrors sometimes provide additional angles. Music plays. The silent couples move rhythmically and keep their cool.

Directed by Blaise Casanova, Kama Sutra - Secrets to the Art of Love leans on a strong ensemble — Brigitte Lahaie, Asia-Kiss, Georges Brasero — 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 documentary titles of 2005.
