Married to the Eiffel Tower
Married to the Eiffel Tower focuses on the lives of three women who experience a unique form of attraction known as Objectum Sexuality (OS). This condition is characterized by individuals developing romantic and sexual feelings towards inanimate objects rather than people. It follows these women as they navigate their relationships with various structures and objects, offering an intimate look into their emotional and physical connections.
The film’s primary subject is Erika, an American woman who has formed a deep bond with the Eiffel Tower. She has legally changed her last name to Eiffel and considers herself married to the iconic Parisian landmark. It also introduces a Swedish woman who expresses her love for a guillotine and a fence, as well as another American woman who is romantically involved with a carnival ride and the Empire State Building.
Throughout the documentary, the women openly discuss their experiences, explaining how they communicate with their object partners through what they describe as telepathy. They also share the challenges they face in a society that often misunderstands or ridicules their orientation. The film touches on the potential psychological factors that may contribute to OS, suggesting that past traumas or difficulties in human relationships might play a role in the development of these object-oriented attachments.
