Filmmaker Liz Canner's new documentary is raising eyebrows as much for its title as its content: "Orgasm, Inc" explores the pharmaceutical industry's attempt to create a female sexual dysfunction in order to market a drug that can cure it. Jane Lindholm talks with Canner about the medicine and marketing of the so-called "female Viagra."

Note: The Merril Roxy Cinema in Burlington will hold a special Question and Answer Session with Liz Canner, producer, director and cinematographer of Orgasm Inc. immediately following the 6:40 showing on Friday August 21st.
