Vintage gyno exam in Neflix movie

La escasa blanka episode 17 ten minute mark the scene opens with the doctor coming up from under the young ladies full length white dress holding a tapered tube speculum and taking a large collins style speculum off the table and returning under the dress with a candle lamp in the other hand. The patient lies on her bed next to a doll and crying. The doctor reports to her father waiting in the next room that she is still the same as the day she was born so not to worry. Well, not after that speculum. Most interesting was the leather harness she was wearing to hold her knees up. It had four leather straps buckled around her thighs attached to chains leading to straps over the shoulders and across the chest.

What is the name of the movie?

I wasnt able to find anything with that name. I found “the esclava blanca”, but the episode 17 i was able to found doesnt have the described scene at all.

I would appreciate a screencap of the strange harness.

Isn't it la Esclava Blanca?

This is clearly a virginity exam, and, as far as I know, one would not need a speculum, let alone two, to check for virginity; as far as I know this is/was done by external sight and inserting a finger; a speculum would even possibly damage the hymen. A similar examination takes places in the French TV movie “Les Diablesses”. I suspect that in both cases they show a speculum to convey to the audience the idea of embarrassing and uncomfortable internal examination.

Hi, I found the same thing. Could not find it. Would be good to see screen shots or a link to the clip thanks

Great to see new stuff

The correct spelling is La esclava blanca and it's on Netflix.Sorry. Pecan nutjob is correct in his assessment. The director may know better but wanted to convey the message that this was a pelvic exam.

It is obviously a matter of country. La Esclava Blanca is not offered by Netflix in Germany. I would love to see the harness she is examined with.

Thank you very much. Very interesting.

Does anyone know if such a harness was a real thing for gyno exams two hundred years ago? What about the speculum? Suspect that's not period correct.

I have seen a similar, but not as elaborate, harness connecting the patients's knes to her neck while having a spreader bar between the knees in a gynecology textbook from the early 20st century.

Not exactly the same kinda restraint . . . but here are some a 21st century versions:

10 minute mark.

They use a speculum indeed and I wonder if this is not anachronistic, in addition to being useless for a pelvic exam. I also wonder about the need for the harness. The girl is crying at the end, and left to rest still wearing the harness, which seems weird and more like sadomasochism than medicine.

The doctor must have been nervous he not only left her in the harness but he left his doctor's bag and instruments behind when he left. She was his friends daughter and he has been her doctor of a long time, possibly from birth.

Thank you very much for the link. Under the cover, there must have been some spreader bar, otherwise she might have closed her legs as the doctor leaves.
