Review:
Subversive...all the secrets of seduction seen from a man's perspective...eroticism has become one of the fundamental interests in the work of Ana Clavel. --Milenio
Clavel explores masculine desire through the total transgression of the body. --Confabulario
With camera in hand, the protagonist ventures into those masculine spaces in order to capture for a moment the sensuality of those hollow white forms and subtle curves where men release their amber liquid. --El Universal
