A Wink and A Smile

Ten Women. One Stage. Zero inhibitions. An intoxicating mix of private yearnings and public spectacle, A Wink and A Smile follows ten ordinary women who do something extraordinary -learn the art of burlesque dancing and striptease. As captured in this revealing and acclaimed documentary, a homemaker, a doctor, an oprea singer, a taxidermist, a college student and five other women join the American revival of burlesque, where performance art and showgirl spectacle crash head-over-heels into an on-stage display of glamour and sensuality - a world where many want to go, but very few dare.
