In Klimax, we create the inner world of the female organ with abstract and associative images. Our main protagonist, Barbie, goes through a process of transformation. She emerges like Alice in Wonderland into a magical world, a place of temptation and joy. It is a fantastic place that makes her change little by little to get rid of her stiﬀness and repression. She passes through several diﬀerent phases, melting away with exhilaration until she reaches her climax - an implicit orgasm - becomes a liquid magic gel. In this process, eroticism is not created by explicit pictures, but by associative images and movement.
