About It Is Not the Pornographer That Is Perverse...
An omnibus film comprised of four short films with interconnected themes and overlapping characters. 'Diablo in Madrid' is inspired by the Pasolini short film La Terra vista dalla Luna (1967). 'Uber Menschen' finds a professor visiting Madrid and contemplating killing himself when an Uber driver talks him out of it. 'Purple Army Fiction' is a reworking of certain ideas developed in LaBruce’s feature film The Raspberry Reich (2004). 'Fleapit' is an homage to films that depict people having sex in movie theatres, from Lamberto Bava’s Demons (1985) to Frank Perry’s Last Summer (1969), and beyond.
Directed by Bruce LaBruce, It Is Not the Pornographer That Is Perverse... leans on a strong ensemble — Sean Ford, Allen King, Colby Keller — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2018.

A white dropout struggles to become a cartoonist and filmmaker, drawing inspiration from the harsh, gritty world around him. Still sharing his rundown apartment with his middle-aged parents, an oafish slob of an Italian father and a ditzy nutcase of a Jewish mother, he's ridiculed and looked down upon by his friends, hypocrites who run with violent gangs and the Italian Mafia, and a shallow Black girl who makes her living downtown with the pimps and pushers. The cartoonist gets a chance to pitch a film idea to a movie mogul, but the story proves too outrageous: a far-future Earth, depleted by war and pollution, where a mutant antihero challenges and kills God.
