Skin for Sale

If, as academic Ramon Gubern says in this film, "Conventional cinema is life without sex, and porn is sex without life," then this documentary goes a long way toward reconciling the two. Focusing on the adult film industry in Barcelona, Spain, the film puts a human face on skin flicks by interviewing participants such as producer Jose Maria Ponce ("the granddaddy of Spanish porn") and actors Nacho Vidal and Anastassia, as well as intellectuals.
