Body Without Soul

Body Without Soul 1996

6.68

Documentary look at doomed male prostitutes in Prague, ages 15 to 18, who troll at the public swimming pool, the train station, a video arcade, and a disco. After the boys talk about how they got in the game, the camera follows them to the home of Pavel Rousek. Under the name Hans Miller, he makes gay porno videos, primarily for German distribution. Intercut with a movie shoot chez Rousek is an interview that follows him to his day job at a morgue, where he performs an autopsy as he talks about his work. The sex is without protection; the boys are without family. They talk about their bodies and souls, money, their sexual orientation, AIDS, their dreams, and death.

As a woman stands alone beside a Greek or Roman column in an outdoor park, a dracula-like figure rushes her, mouth open, teeth bared, as if to bite her neck. The victim holds up a sign - a safe-sex diagram - and Cunt Dykula jumps back, mortified. There may be a way around this impasse. Can Dykula and the solitary woman figure it out?

Hose

Hose 1999

Mixing cyberporn and “basement porn” footage together, Hose juxtaposes the revolutionary promises of sexuality of the '70s with the cybersex reality of the '90s. This rich visual examination of queer sexuality would not be complete without its sly piss-take (literally) about the fun of watersports.
