There are a lot of weird fetishes around. Some you may never have heard of. Add this one to that list of things you didn't know existed: Living dolls - men who dress up like dolls in bodysuits and masks.

While there are other weirder fetishes, or acts, or whatever you want to call this, here's a brief explanation of what this really is:
Female maskers, also known as ‘dolls’, are a hidden community of ordinary family men who lead extraordinary double lives, dressing up in elaborate rubber suits as they strive to become their own ideal fantasy woman. There are thousands of female maskers all over the world, but most have kept their secret behind closed doors.

This documentary enters this private world, meeting the men coming to terms with what has, for many, become an all-consuming hobby, spending thousands of hours and hundreds of pounds creating their alter-egos.
