Love me by the hour

It sounds like a bad fairy tale: the woman who needs to be saved and the dirty man. But that is still the dominant image of sex workers and their clients in our society. Due to the taboo and limited representation surrounding paid intimacy, there is little room for the diverse perspectives of the people who are themselves part of the world of sex work. A world that – they know – cannot be captured in one image.

From quickies and pure desire to special long nights and intimate relationships. What makes the relationship between sex worker and client unique? Based on the experiences of sex workers and their clients, a much broader picture of sex work unfolds in the performance LOVE ME BY THE HOUR . Beyond the cliché of the red light, we shine the spotlight on those for whom intimacy – for whatever reason – is a matter of supply and demand.
