Candida Royalle lived a life of passion and purpose. She was a pioneer in erotic cinema that are sensually explicit and female pleasure centric. Filmmaker Sheona McDonald made the documentary “Candice” all about Candida Royalle. My friend of twenty years-plus, Candice gained public traction in both the adult and academic communities for her erotic films featuring plotlines from a female pleasure perspective. Sheona captured the essence of Candice in both “Inside Her Sex” and “Candice.” Sexual shame and exploration are themes. Dr. Diana and Sheona discussed the films and the subjects that were covered. Does Candice, her work, and the things she was fighting for, fit into the current conversation? Please tune in and decide for yourself!
