"A young woman, an aspiring writer, gets a job selling tickets in a New York porno cinema. She becomes intrigued by the milieu and begins to follow one particular customer who travels around in a chauffer-driven limousine. Her initial fascination grows into obsession; in her imagination fantasy and reality become increasingly difficult to separate. While the filmmaker provides access to the film through the pleasures of narrative conventions she ultimately seeks to disrupt and reverse the roles and conventions of the thriller form in order to directly confront representations of sexuality and male/female desire, more specifically a woman's developing fascination with her own sexuality. Christine's fantasised position oscillates between the one who looks, the one who is looked at and the one who observes the voyeur."@en

"Christine, a young woman desperate for employment, takes a job as a ticket seller at a 42nd Street porn theater called the Variety. Ensconced in the glass booth but hearing the sexual sounds emanating from the screen, Christine begins to pursue her voyeuristic urges for the films and the customers, much to the chagrin of her boyfriend. She is particularly fascinated by an elderly patron, a gangster, whom she trails on her off hours. In this film which explores a woman's right to sexual fantasies without punishment or degradation, Christine becomes the hunter."
"The sexually charged tale of a woman's journey of self-discovery, Variety is a fascinating film that challenges familiar stereotypes surrounding feminism and pornography. Christine (Sandy McLeod) takes a job selling tickets at a porno theater near Times Square. Instead of distancing herself from the dark and erotic nature of this milieu, Christine develops an obsession that begins to consume her life. Few films deal honestly with a female sexual point-of-view, controversial and highly personal, Variety does just this, and in doing so announces itself as the major film of a director who embodies the essence of independent cinema."@en
