Captivating, athletic Karl Forest is the focus of this artfully made and breathtakingly erotic late '70s classic French porn film. Giving the film a documentary-like feeling, Forest ? on and off camera ? narrates his experiences as a hustler and nightclub performer living in Paris (with spoken English translations). As we hear about his life, background, and philosophy, we observe Forest going about his every single day routines, performing his cabaret acts and participating in stylized raunchy vignettes. Atmospheric, beautifully discharged, and blisteringly sexy, this moody portrait of lonely masculinity is potent and masterfully executed. Forest's performance is arresting; his physique is meticulously sculpted (we see him religiously exercising), this chab has tattoos on his biceps and scars on his lip and eyebrow, and that guy has an aggressive but detached aura, frequently sitting alone and smokin. His words sometimes contradict what we watch of his life. He is a self-critical narcissist who denies his striking build's impressiveness and jerks off and lifts weights during the time that staring into the mirror. He fetishizes weapons and war, describes his stint in the military and former conflicts with law enforcement, is pragmatic and dislikes dwelling on negative emotions or wasting time on dreams, and values his independence and non-attachment. The film's opening features Forest, clad solely in a military helmet ? showing off his incredible physique and his big, uncut weenie ? straddling and thrusting on top of a cannon. We start to receive Forest's backstory as the camera enters a wooded area near where this chab grew up, formerly a battleground where this chab used to discover weapons from the war. Forest and some other fellow are making love among the trees whilst a barely-glimpsed observer in a German uniform watches throughout binoculars. Forest describes his past as a youthful tough. We watch anybody playing pinball in an arcade and Forest ? sporting slicked-back hair and a white reservoir top and wielding a switchblade ? getting a oral-stimulation from a kneeling dude in a bath. In a plain white room with solely a world map mounted on the wall, Forest is bent over a table and screwed by a youthful "cop" in sunglasses and a leather jacket, whilst chained and yowling. He then bonks the cop in return, clothed as a mobster and pointing a at the cop's helmeted head. In military fatigues, Forest enthusiastically eats a man's, then salutes and exits. At night in a hotel, Forest acquires a wildly enthusiastic fellatio from a john. At 1st detached, smokin, staring into the distance, Forest becomes increasingly fascinated by observing the aged guy devouring and worshipping his schlong. The chap becomes so consumed by the orall-service that this guy displaces his hairpiece. Forest gapes at him and comes as the john strokes himself to climax and collapses onto Forest's crotch. Forest does an energetic nightclub performance to a great track. He is seen sprawled nude in ottoman, bathing, and lifting weights at the gym. He briefly tries to cruise outside but is followed home by a meek younger guy who had been gawking at his weightlifting. Forest bonks the juvenile fellow in his bedroom, then barely registers as the guy exits his apartment. Forest discusses his versatility and interest in any number of raunchy activities. The camera creeps throughout a black tunnel and we come upon Forest and 2 fellows fucking in the darkness, illuminated merely by the beam of a flashlight that roves over entangled body parts. Finally, Forest returns home. He undresses in front of his mirror and masturbates, breath fogging his reflection as this chab comes. He rides off on his motorcycle. Forest himself is credited with the film's script and is the co-producer (along with director Wallace Potts, paramour of Rudolf Nureyev). Features charming photography by Francois About (who sets the atmosphere and dynamically captures the film's sex scenes), choreographed performances, and an astonishing musical score.
