Anora won the Palme d’Or at this year ’s Cannes Film Festival .

Director Sean Baker 's film is the latest in his acclaimed narratives about sex workers.

Anora is about a lap dancer who finds a way out of sex work after she meets the son of a wealthy Russian oligarch.

Baker talks about how he finds his stories, the power of women in his filmography.

The film opens at a club called Headquarters in Manhattan .

I wanted to explore this new wave of gentlemen’s clubs, which are basically lap dance clubs.

It also hearkens back to something I’ve always been intrigued by. In World War I , they had these things called a Dime a Dance , when soldiers would pay a young woman to dance with them for a dime.
