The film looks at the hidden pleasures related to the artefacts of VHS adult films. The old grainy tape contains scenes from a porno film, re-assembled, the soundtrack is an instrumental version of the song “The Shadow of Your Smile”. But the source-material begins to censor itself via its unstable image calibration.
Alexei Dmitriev (RU), born 1986. He used to teach English and literature, and now he works as a visual artist, curator and programmer.
