the sarnos: a life in dirty movies

cinekink season opener!

A love story about legendary sexploitation director Joe Sarno, “the Ingmar Bergman of 42nd Street,” and his wife and collaborator Peggy.

Following the couple for a year, as 88-year old Joe struggles to get a new project off the ground, the film’s intimate perspective reveals a filmmaker’s golden years and a quest for significance, while providing a look back at the evolution of softcore films into the hardcore porn that all but put the Sarnos out of business.

Directed by Wiktor Ericsson, 2013, Sweden, 80 minutes. Screening courtesy of Film Movement.
