Flex is a 2000 video installation by the British video artist Chris Cunningham. It consists of a 15-minute film loop that endlessly depicts a naked man and woman floating in darkness, who by turns embrace and furiously beat one another, culminating in an act of anal sex during which they disappear in a blast of light. The film is set to an electronic soundtrack by Aphex Twin. It was given an 18 certificate by the BBFC, with no cuts from its original form. A 3.5-minute excerpt of the 17-minute film was released on the DVD The Work of Director Chris Cunningham.
