Description
2009 | USA | 79 Minutes | Dir. Liz Canner
LA Premiere
In this shocking and hilarious documentary, filmmaker Liz Canner takes a job editing erotic videos for a drug trial at a pharmaceutical company. Her employer is developing what they hope will be the first Viagra drug to win FDA approval for treating a new disease: Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD). ORGASM INC. is a powerful look inside the medical industry and the marketing campaigns that are literally and figuratively reshaping our everyday lives around health, illness, desire and that ultimate moment: orgasm.
What does prostate cancer have to do with any of this? Watch the documentary and find out and help SPARK at the same time!

A huge "thank you" to all the weSPARK supporters, guests, and poker players that came out to Sportmen's Lodge on Sunday, March 21st, to participate in our annual Jason Alexander Texas Hold'em Poker Tournament. The event was a wonderful success, spearheaded by weSPARK board members, Arthur Toretzky and Anita Rich. This was the first year the tournament was held at Sportsmen's Lodge, after it's previous tenure at Hollywood Park Casino and the outcome could not have been better. The beautiful ambiance, delicious food and easy parking made for a perfect venue and one weSPARK is anxious to return to for our next Tournament.
