Æon Flux: Thanatophobia

I'm a fan of the cartoon Aeon Flux. Always have been. Ever since I was a little kid and I saw one of the female characters lick Trevor Goodchild's nipple...oh yes, this cartoon goes there. This episode involves espionage, acrobatics, jilted lovers, some S&M and other strange methods of reaching sexual orgasm (look closely during one of the wall scenes). But underneath all of that is a melancholy story of a woman trying desperately to believe in herself and find freedom/autonomy, both inside and in the outside world. Check it out.
