My Year of Porn

Correspondent Cole in front of a dirty, dirty shop.MY YEAR OF PORN is a one-woman comedy about a journalist’s eye-opening adventures the year she produces a documentary on the porn industry. Through storytelling and character monologues, she travels to porn sets, backseats of trucks and a bizarre swingers club in downtown LA. It’s Heart of Darkness. Only instead of the Congo, it’s Porno.

You’ll meet the enthusiastic porn starlet Sinammon Summers, who takes her job very seriously; the busiest director in porn, Gordon “Monty” Monty; the swarthy porn veteran, Rock Hard; and the somewhat intimidating porn superstar, Angel St. Jaymes. Cole even manages to track down the famously reclusive, shell-shocked, 400-pound porn director, John Merriweather.

But she didn’t count on the fact that they’re watching her too. Monty thinks she’d be perfect to star in his next movie, Merriweather thinks she’d be perfect to write his next movie, and Angel St. Jaymes keeps looking at Cole in a leering way that’s starting to make her feel uncomfortable.

Cole’s plucky curiosity morphs into deep concern when she realizes maybe she’s in too deep. Can watching live sex on a daily basis make a girl jaded? What will a year of porn do to her?
