Dreamworlds 3, a ground breaking documentary by Sut Jhally, examines the stories contemporary music videos tell about girls and women, and encourages us to consider how these narratives shape individual and cultural attitudes about sexuality.
Illustrated with hundreds of up-to-date images, Dreamworlds 3 offers a unique and powerful tool for understanding both the continuing influence of music videos and how pop culture more generally filters the identities of young men and women through a dangerously narrow set of myths about sexuality and gender. In doing so, it inspires us to reflect critically on images that we might otherwise take for granted.
Warning: The following images are not for the faint of heart, but it is nothing you wouldn't see on MTV...
