Releases
The UK version released in 2006 runs at 114 minutes and includes seven short films:
- Balkan Erotic Epic (Marina Abramović, 14:04) - An erotic comedy about myths from the Balkans about sex organs.
- Sync (Marco Brambilla, 02:15) - Consists of very fast cuts from different porn films.
- Impaled (Larry Clark, 38:28) - A casting for a porn film, but not with the insecure women often displayed; instead, the young men are the insecure ones.
- Death Valley (Sam Taylor-Wood, 08:25) - A man masturbates in the desert.
- House Call (Richard Prince, 12:29) - A vintage sex scene recontextualized with edits and music.
- Hoist (Matthew Barney, 14:38) - A juxtaposition of sexuality and industrial machinery.
- We Fuck Alone (Gaspar Noé, 23:31) - A man and a woman masturbate to the same porn film in different rooms.
The US version (2010) runs at 129 minutes and includes eight shorts, four from the earlier plus four new ones: Marilyn Minter's Green Pink Caviar, Cecily Brown's Four Letter Heaven, Clark's Impaled, Noé's We Fuck Alone, Prince's House Call, Sante D'Orazio's Scratch This and Tunga's Cooking.
