Thirty Mexican women talk, on open mic, about their experience of orgasm. ‘Las muertes chiquitas’ is a documentary work carried out by Mireia Sallarès in different parts of Mexico between 2006 and 2009, and widely shown to great critical acclaim. The artist collects multiple testimonies about sexual desire and satisfaction, but above all, about what these tell us about the lives of the protagonists. A choral work with a far-reaching political dimension. The first-person singular makes visible, in an irrevocable way, how questions of class, race and culture condition the experience of being a woman. Can a single question bring out such different realities? Among the women who speak, there are single, separated and married women of different ages. Many are mothers. One is transsexual. There are also those who identify as bisexual. They work as house cleaners, university professors, anthropologists, sex workers, performers, activists, ex-nuns, ex-guerrilla fighters... For all of them, sexuality means pleasure and pain, and is always related to patriarchal power. With her documentary, which also resulted in a publication, Sallarès, who defines herself as a ‘political artist’, offers them a space of resistance. Take the time to listen to their rich testimony.
