Body Without Soul
by Wiktor Grodecki
from Water Bearer
From director Wiktor Grodecki (Mandragora) this startling and disturbing feature is a graphic insider's view of the seedy but burgeoning East Europe industry that trades nubile young men. The film introduces us to one of the adults (now jailed) who exploits Prague's youth; the city's police coroner and prolific porn director named Pavel. Told with unflinching honesty, Body Without Soul provides an explicit view of the exploitation, pain , and pitiful existence of young men who, out of necessity, sell their bodies to survive. The camera follows the young men as they walk the streets, work on porno shoots, hustle for money, and talk abut their emotions, bodies, sexual preferences and fear of AIDS, their hopes and demons.
Not Angels But Angels
by Wiktor Grodecki
from Water Bearer
Like no film you've ever seen, Not Angels But Angels is a chilling account of fragile youth caught in the grasp of Earth's oldest trade. Prague's economic boom and recently won political freedom have transformed that beautiful city into a new mecca for both Eastern and Western tourists searching for sex. Young men trying to live up to the standards of Western consumerism fall prey to the quick, easy money made from hustling. The young hustlers' disarming frankness and need to talk become the compelling engine that drives the film. They withhold nothing, telling their stories in gruesome and stripped bare detail.
