After Porn Ends Netflix
Vida Hubbert
Documentary filmmaker Bryce Wagoner, a graduate of East Carolina University,[1] interviewed several former porn stars about their lives after leaving the industry. Wagoner got the inspiration for the documentary from a part-time job during his film education: During a voice-over and motion capture break for the video game, WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw, a group watched porn movies and one of them asked what the actors did with their lives after their time in the scene.[2] In a separate blog post, he explained that the scene was about sexual acts with vegetables.[3]
There is a time limit on how long a person can work in the porn industry, and in this documentary, the reality of life after porn for several of the industry's top stars forms the basis of a fascinating story about second acts. (There's also a sequel.)
Netflix may not be best known for its documentaries, but the streaming site is full of illuminating docs on a wide variety of subjects, including sex. If you've ever wondered what life is truly like for porn stars or how the sex trade affects women across the world, Netflix has a number of documentaries that address these subjects. These docs aren't designed to be titillating. They're an honest look at the culture of sex and the business surrounding it. Some of these films aren't easy to watch, but the stories they tell are fascinating, raw, and, above all, honest.\n","id":44937101,"type":"gallery","photo_source":"Image Source: Everett Collection","permalink":"https:\/\/www.popsugar.co.uk\/entertainment\/Documentaries-About-Sex-Netflix-44937101","canonical":"https:\/\/www.popsugar.co.uk\/entertainment\/Documentaries-About-Sex-Netflix-44937101","share_text":"10 Illuminating (and Disturbing) Documentaries About Sex on Netflix","use_tall_image":false,"omit_from_countdown":false,"caption_num":false,"slide_tags":"NetflixNetflix RoundupDocumentariesMovies","is_cover":true},"image":"\n \n \n \n \n ","share_image":"https:\/\/media1.popsugar-assets.com\/files\/thumbor\/S_oYGtJsuEFbXubyXP1eO0en0po\/fit-in\/2048xorig\/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-\/2018\/06\/08\/180\/n\/43611095\/netimgdaAOuu\/i\/Hot-Girls-Wanted.jpg","title":"Hot Girls Wanted","intro_text":false,"body":"Hot Girls Wanted is a chilling look at the trend of young women straight out of high school being recruited as amateur porn stars via the internet.
