Synopsis by Mark Deming

This documentary offers an intimate and stereotype-shattering look at four women who work at an upscale strip club in Washington, D.C. Portraits of a Naked Lady Dancer presents a look into the onstage and offstage lives of these women as they discuss their work, the balance of power between themselves and their audience, their attitudes about sex and exposing themselves to their fans (one of them still dances while visibly pregnant as a statement about the role of childbearing in sexuality), how they feel they are perceived by others, and more.
