In 2005, sexuality educator A'magine was traveling
throughout New York with four other gynecological
teaching associates (GTAs), each using their own bodies
to teach those training in the medical field how to
perform breast and pelvic exams. The work of GTAs,
unknown to many outside of the medical sphere, is a
very intimate transactional experience that provides
future doctors, nurses, and physician assistants the
ability to practice their clinical skills while receiving
critical feedback from a responsive professional.
A'magine knew that the work they were doing would

make a compelling documentary, and so she assembled
a team.
" We thought we were making a film about that
work because we thought that was worthy of a story, "
A'magine says. But then she learned about a second,
more prevalent and entrenched gynecological teaching
method: practicing on anesthetized patients without
prior permission and often without subsequent
acknowledgment or a paper trail.
" We turned a lot of our attention to that, and
that has become the greater centerpiece of the film, "
says A'magine.
It's something very few people know about but, yes,
" students have been learning on anesthetized patients
