East Van Porn Collective
» Adult
Made in Secret: The Story of the East Van Porn Collective is a documentary looking at a group of people who hoped to create porn outside of conventional commercial contexts.
East Van’s Professor University, who talks as if someone had anally inserted the dialectic of the hermeneutics right up his Hershey highway, maintains that the initial impulse was to make fun, silly, but still compellingly erotic films, something that the Professor claims no one (neither auteur nor amateur) has managed to do. The need to reclaim one’s sexuality from the maw of commerce and exploitation is an ongoing and constant battle. And in a way, it isn’t the sex that is the interesting part, but the collective aspect: the need for a process where everyone has a voice and the right to take their pants off in public. Remove one letter and you get pubic.
