Description
Summary:	This documentary explores the effects of the deluge of hard-core pornography in our society. Do people become desensitized to violence by the images of rape, domination and bondage that abound? This film delves into the many research studies that have been conducted on how attitudes change after continued exposure to sado-masochistic images. At the University of Wisconsin, a test group was less sympathetic to the victim at a rape trial after viewing pornography. The documentary also emphasizes the efforts made by legislators, censors and community groups to control this problem. Pornography is clearly big business, and the problem of regulating it has yet to be solved. Please note that there is explicit material in this presentation.
