VHS porn meets body horror in the weirdest transhumanist fever dream you'll tape over your memory for.
There's something so special about adult films pre internet digitization, VHS tapes copied and circulated in your community, mailing lists and screening parties and brown paper bags were the distribution model. The intimate privacy of a time capsule contained in a black plastic film cartridge, hidden in the back of a drawer, labelled as something inconspicuous so as not to arouse suspicion - hidden treasure.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of a wave of 'post-porn' filmmakers using explicit content to explore queer theory and technological alienation, screening primarily in gallery spaces and underground festivals.
The 'brown paper bag' distribution model referenced in marketing isn't nostalgia—Ashley actively restricts digital circulation to preserve the film's intended illicit materiality.
