An ageing, semi-retired porn star is persuaded, against his better judgement, with a big cheque, to make a film for a mysterious, menacing producer; but when the film’s disagreeable content becomes apparent, he struggles to walk away from it, in Spasojevic’s notorious, (apparently) allegorical horror film, which is not so much disturbing as unpleasant and often merely laughable.
