For more than 10 years a stationary camera has been capturing the “making of” moments on prolific French pornographer HPG’s sets. Culled from thousands of hours of footage, There Is No Sexual Rapport shares the mundane, monotonous and momentous episodes that typically remain on the cutting room floor: spontaneous sex between costars when the cameras are done rolling; a pep talk on male confidence; a woman’s glassy-eyed euphoria upon discovering her ability to ejaculate. HPG and his screen partners empower and titillate in videos inspired by real-life female sexual fantasies, and demystify the process of cheating fellatio, fake spanking and pounding versus penetration. This is a stunning mise en scène of orifices and accidental framing that exposes the delight (you might actually get turned on) and the tragedy (19-year-olds giving away so much of themselves for so little) involved in sex work.
