Pornoland is a strange parallel world where pornographic films are churned out on a daily basis. Photographs by de Luigi and text by Martin Armis are your guides through this land, filled with actors capable of extraordinary performances (although not the kind that win Oscars) and directors who make an entire film in just one day.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"'Porno people have changed. In the yard of the house on Dolorosa Drive, during a break in filming, Chloe, Artie and Lola stood there naked, discussing a new rollercoaster ride called Desperado. They were all smoking. I came across many a good little smoker in pornoland. What with the risks they run already, who cares about smoking? Then it was butts out and back to work. And I do mean work. Porno is a proletarian form. And porno people are a hard-grafting, ill-paid fraternity who, by and large, look out for each other and help each other through. They pay their rent with the death of feelings' - from the Introduction by Martin Amis"
