Maoist Internationalist Movement 
   Good Woman of Bangkok, The (Dennis O'Rourke, 1992)

   "Documentary-fiction" (undefined) on the meaning of "love," rather
   than on the exploitation of Third World prostitutes who work to
   service First World sexual decadence. O'Rourke allows a Thai
   prostitute to speak about being a prostitute with no economic
   alternative, but turns the movie into reactionary romantic mush. When
   Aoi says she hates all men and wishes she could make them die,
   O'Rourke frames this as the tragedy of prostitution destroying Aoi's
   ability to "love." Despite plenty of Euro-chauvanism, the movie
   manages to expose the substantial gender oppression which is
   imperialism.
