impediscono loro di ottenere orgasmi nella quantità e qualità desiderate. Guidati dalla psicologa, clitoride anche lei, esaminano i principali temi dell'agenda sessuale supportati da una struttura di "stand up" a sei voci attraverso la quale tutte le questioni che tanto inquietano le donne sono trattate con umorismo e un po' di intento didattico. Il travestito è la nota colorata del gruppo, perché essendo uomo e volendo essere essere donna, si unisce al gruppo per godere come il genere femminile.By Marco Cardelli. 2018

Klaus Braun Schneider is a Formula 1 driver at the height of his career. He’s living in glory, rewriting Brazil’s…
racing history. Beautiful and seductive, he’s the most wanted single man in the country. There’s nothing that Klaus Schneider doesn’t have: success, fame, money, and women. He’s faster than the wind, the world is at his feet, nothing can stop him. Except...fate. Anahí Saraíba is a physical therapist at the start of a promising career, torn between the white man’s culture and the simple way of life of her indigenous roots. She accepts a job caring exclusively for the recovery of a race driver that’s temporarily paraplegic. Klaus is a challenge for Anahi: depressive, rude, the typical problem-patient. At first, Klaus hates the therapist they found for him, Anahí is too bossy, irritating, combative and...gorgeous. But on a second look, love rearranges all around it, without asking, testing all limits.By Charlotte Wood. 2020
