Hace más de un siglo que la sociedad, el movimiento de mujeres y las organizaciones feministas, se encuentran atravesados por un debate que aun hoy sigue latente y sin resolverse: la prostitución, ¿es o no es un trabajo? Y en el caso de serlo, ¿cómo debería ser implementado, regulado y ejercido? A partir de este debate, nos proponemos analizar la película Elles de la directora Malgorzata Szumowska donde Anne, una periodista de la revista Elle, debe realizar entrevistas a estudiantes que eligen como su sustento económico el trabajo sexual. Para ello, intentaremos realizar un entrecruzamiento entre las definiciones de biopolítica y sexo que nos ofrece Michel Foucault, vinculándolo a la posición que la sociedad y el Estado asumen actualmente ante el trabajo sexual. Dicho film nos permitirá poner al descubierto ciertas tensiones y discursos que atraviesan a nuestras sociedades combinando prejuicios religiosos, morales e higienistas que tienen como única consecuencia la discriminación, estigmatización y persecución de quienes ejercen el comercio sexual.
