A Labor of Love (1976)

In the winter of 1974, a naive independent filmmaker based in Chicago found funding to make his first feature, to be titled “The Last Affair.” The one stipulation mandated by his financial bakers was that the movie needed to include hardcore sex scenes. A LABOR OF LOVE documents the ensuing heart felt and earnest attempt to create an X rated movie. Between struggles with the cast and problems with crew and locations, the production forges on in a manner NBC News described as “A true human comedy”

My Granny the Escort (2014)

Award-winning filmmaker Charlie Russell offers a frank, intimate and revealing portrait of three of Britain's mature escorts: older women who choose to sell sex from hotel rooms and their homes, all completely legally. As well as topping up their pensions, all of these women seem to be enjoying themselves in their chosen and often new profession, but the film also questions how such a lifestyle can co-exist with their family lives and their roles as mothers and grandparents.

* Love for Sale with Rupert Everett (2014)

Prostitutes are often seen as either immoral individuals or exploited victims. Rupert Everett uncovers the real story of the sex industry, going behind the stereotypes to hear the unvarnished truth from sex workers and their clients.

Part 1: Why People Sell Sex
Rupert explores the motivations of sex workers, from the Exeter housewife who claims she loves her work, to the Liverpool street-walker, and from the Mayfair escort who charges £700 an hour, to the young rent boy on the backstreets of Tel Aviv. Rupert offers a passionate defence of the dignity and rights of a group of people who he feels have been unjustly stigmatised for thousands of years. This is an unusually truthful and honest insight into the sex trade, and a funny and sometimes angry attack on the hypocrisy that surrounds the subject.

Part 2: Why People Buy Sex
Ten percent of British men admit to having used a prostitute. What does that tell us about male desire? Rupert Everett explores the motivations of the men who use prostitutes, meeting self-confessed sex addicts, as well as a married man who enjoys sexual role-play with a dominatrix, and a divorced transgender father whose experiences with his 'straight' male clients cast a fascinating light on the sexuality of some British men. He also encounters a successful businessman who claims to have spent £150,000 on massage parlour prostitutes in two years, and a happily married man who says his prostitute use enhances rather than damages his marriage. Finally, he talks to comedian and actor Russell Brand, who talks frankly about his own experiences. This is the conclusion to an unusually truthful and honest insight into the sex trade, and a funny and sometimes angry attack on the hypocrisy that surrounds the subject.

* Fake Orgasm (2010)

A provocative docu from a provocative helmer on a provocative subject, “Fake Orgasm” has a message that might have been taken from an academic primer, but brings it to gripping life by virtue of its confrontational protag. An erotic performance artist and self-proclaimed “activist, actionist and situationist,” Lazlo Pearlman is on a mission to change how people think and feel about themselves and their bodies, and Jordi Sol’s pic is part of that project. Alternative fests should show interest in “Orgasm,” which won the top prize in the recent Malaga fest’s ZonaZine sidebar.

* Dogging Tales (2013)

This intimate and compelling True Stories film provides an insight into why men and women engage in or watch sexual activity in front of strangers in public areas, under the cover of darkness.

Interviews with doggers begin in the 'real world' as their day draws to a close and they discuss their normal lives.

As they go out they shed their daytime personas and Maguire accompanies them to lay-bys, woods and picnic spots around the UK that often double as dogging locations after dusk.

The characters allow themselves to be filmed during their sexual encounters but they also open up about their attraction to dogging: how they were introduced to it; why they may feel a lack of fulfilment without it; and how their relationships are enhanced or damaged by it.

The film is not just about sex or fetishistic behaviour, but also the human story of alter-egos, connections and acceptance.

This beautifully shot, distinctive film captures the intimate night-time journeys that few people see or experience, but that allow this covert community precious escapism, excitement and self-discovery.

Dogging Tales is directed by award-winning photographer Leo Maguire, who made his critically-acclaimed debut in 2012 with Gypsy Blood: True Stories.

* Confessions of a Male Stripper (2013)

Male stripping is booming in the UK. Every weekend in most major cities, women are paying to see men get naked.

David is on the search for some 'fresh meat' to join his London troupe and meets the men that come forward to auditions. Who are they, why are they doing it and what impact is it having on their lives? Like never before, this First Cut film lifts the lid on this exotic world of sex, fantasy and temptation and shines a light on the private lives of the men whose job it is to bare all. First Cut is the critically acclaimed, eclectic documentary strand that showcases distinctive new films by up and coming directors.
