The use of BDSM by M.M. Serra is deeply thoughtful; this is realised through the use of both erotic scenes and formal interviews with the dominant, who appears in the scenes. This narrative is central to the curation of this channel, with Serra’s specific view of how BDSM challenges the socialised reality of power, gender, and sexuality. While heteronormativity may determine much of our social appearance through sexual practices and relations, these boundaries can be examined and deconstructed.

L’Amour Fou is filmed in the wider context of the 90s, during the height of the AIDS epidemic, in a time when safe sexual practices and spaces, especially for the queer community, were underrepresented.
