Ovaj film pruža bolji uvid u običaje obrezivanja žena u Indoneziji. Iako se u Indoneziji ne uklanja čitavi deo klitorisa i usmine ženskog polnog organa, ovaj običaj je i dalje naširoko prihvaćen. ”Cilj” je ”očistiti i zaštititi” žene od zlog duha koji ih navodi na promiskuitetno ponašanje. Čak i danas mnogi ljudi nisu svesni rizika ovog poduhvata. Ovaj film prikazuje haotična verovanja i kontekst koji stoji iza običaja obrezivanja žena.
• 19:30h- Gospodin ili gospođa? (Trajanje- 26:53 minuta)
U Džakarti, glavnom gradu Indonezije, žene imaju veliki pristup popularnim magazinima, odeći ili kozmetici. Ali naći ginekologa koji ne osuđuje nije laka stvar. U ovom filmu se traga za slobognim i neudatim ženama koje mogu da dobiju dobar zdravstveni tretman. Kada neudata žena želi da uradi test koji bi pokazao da li boluje od raka grlića materice, ne dobija dozvolu za to od bolnice, već samo moralnu lekciju. S druge strane, kada žena želi da ode u privatnu, skupu bolnicu,, sve se odvija u najboljem redu. Ovaj film ukazuje na važnost zdravstvenih prava, kao i na moralna i religijska osuđivanja od strane društva, koja proističu kao posledica klasnog sistema u društvu u kojem ove žene žive.

Ne bi li uspele da zarade više, ove žene rade noću kao seksualne radnice na kineskom groblju, gde uspeju da zarade oko 10 000 rupija, (što je približno jedan dolar) za svaku seksualnu uslugu.
