| Summary |
Acclaimed portrait photographer Timothy Greenfield-Sanders presents a behind-the-scenes look at the making of his new book of adult film star portraits. In 2002, after 25 years photographing art-world personalities, celebrities and world leaders, Timothy Greenfield-Sanders tackled a new subject - adult film stars. The resulting book, XXX: 30 Porn-Star Portraits, features paired portraits, one clothed and one nude, of a cross-section of straight and gay actors, from porn legends to rising stars. This documentary includes footage of the photographer using a large format portrait camera to create the shots in his book, as well as conversations with the actors, who discuss how they began their careers, how being a porn star has changed their lives and how they feel about sex and the industry. In addition, authors, artists and cultural observers - such as Karen Finley, Nancy Friday, Richard Johnson, Adrian Nicole LeBlanc, Michael Musto, Whitley Strieber, Gore Vidal, John Waters and Faye Wattleton - offer far-ranging, provocative perspectives on porn today, yesterday and tomorrow.
