Synopsis:
INSIDE Deep Throat examines the unanticipated lasting cultural impact
generated by Deep Throat, a sexually explicit film first shown in a midtown
Manhattan adult theater in June 1972 that quickly became the flashpoint
for an unprecedented social and political firestorm. Generally considered
the most profitable film of all time (produced for less than $25,000),
Deep Throat unexpectedly became a cultural phenomenon at the moment when
the nation's movements of sexual liberation, equal rights and questioning
authority demanded a combustible focus. The barely one-hour long adult
title became compulsory viewing for millions of Americans. More than 30
years later, INSIDE Deep Throat examines the chasm between the modest
intentions of the filmmakers behind Deep Throat and the unforeseen, ironic
impact and legacy that their film left on society.
