This video is based on two classic s/m novels; “Venus in Furs”, and “The Story of O”. “Venus in Furs” portrays the insatiable desire of one man to submit to one very cruel woman - indeed his love-ridden slavishness is so demanding that it takes a considerable toll on her. This is one sub-plot of this video. Wanda is the cruel woman, and through the course of the video, all Wanda’s primary relationships change, and yet the show, the performance art of sado-masochism, goes on. English subtitles.
