Plot
Destricted can be described as seven short art-house porn films:
- Impaled (Larry Clark) - A casting for a porn film, but not with the insecure women often displayed, instead with insecure young men. (37min 28s).
- Balkan Erotic Epic (Marina Abramović) - An erotic comedy about myths from the Balkan around the sexual organs. (13 min 04s).
- House Call (Richard Prince) - A vintage sex scene that comes closest to pornography. (12min 29s).
- Sync (Marco Brambilla) - Consists of very fast cuts from different porn films and plays for about two minutes. (2min 15s).
- Hoist (Matthew Barney) - A general art film. (14min 37s).
- Death Valley - Opens with a beautiful shot, but then continues with an eight-minute masturbation scene. (8min 25s).
- We Fuck Alone (Gaspar Noé) - A doll is the protagonist. (23min 31s).
