Documentary
Take a closer look at people who have chosen naturism as a lifestyle, who prefer not to wear clothes whatever their activities. From shopping in the village to climbing in the local hills, these people allow themselves to live life to the fullest.
With a cheekily contemplative tone and an empathetic lens, Naked Gardens takes us inside an isolated nudist community in Florida, where residents find a place to feel accepted, deal with their past traumas and jointly pursue forming a utopia-like society.
It's the invention of clothes, not nature, that made "private parts" private.
What's happened to nakedness?
This short film looks at the way we see our bodies in modern society and what that means for us as individuals and as a collective. Set against the current socio-political climate, one male and two female naturists discuss an alternative to the often objectified and sexualised body we’ve come to accept as the norm, and how it feels to step beyond this boundary into a new understanding and way of behaving.
