When any oppressed group breaks free of
their shackles, there must be a 'drunk' period - a time for celebration, sloppiness, loudness, even open abrasiveness
through which centuries of brutally enforced modesty and subvervience are shaken off. Before the question "What
am I without these shackles?" is posited there must be a time for the answer "I am NOT these shackles." In this
issue we examine the way women artists have approached this celebration, including exercising their right to
"not celebrate" at all. The issue features Asia Argento, a gifted Italian actress whose impressive directorial
debut Scarlet Diva fearlessly examines these issues.
