Pornomelancholia

Soulful docufiction featuring real-life porn actor Lalo Santos.

Lalo is a sex influencer and performer. On social networks he directs his own life, posting photos of his naked body and homemade porn videos to thousands of his followers. Yet there is a disconnect with his private life where he exists in a state of permanent melancholy.

Frank in its depiction of the porn industry, yet contemplative in its examination of the relationship between sexuality, work, and the characters we build to show (or hide from) the world, Argentine filmmaker Manuel Abramovich’s presents an intelligent and uncompromising work of docufiction which features a soulful performance from real-life porn actor Lalo Santos.
