New Showbiz Analysis

The film stands out by emphasizing female sexual autonomy and challenging traditional gender roles. Eva's proactive approach to her well-being disrupts the stereotype of the passive female lead. However, the film lacks diversity in other areas, such as racial and ethnic representation, LGBTQ+ identities, and disability inclusion. This narrow focus limits the film's broader impact.

Official Synopsis

After her gynecologist tells her that her current involuntary celibacy could result in her being unable to enjoy sex in the future, Eva begins to consider ways that she could take active steps to get some action going in that area. Unfortunately, none of the men she currently knows are interested in going to bed with her, including her business partner, who just might be sexually attracted to trees but certainly isn't to her. That being the case, it is particularly galling that he gets jealous at the very notion of her having sex with business clients. Eva discusses these issues (and a great deal more) with her similarly forty-ish gal-pals.
