Easily the most controversial film to come out of the Czech Republic, Body Without Soul delivers a slap in the face for all of us happy homosexuals who are living the comfortable Western gay lifestyle. While rent boys and porno models in the West can enjoy an above-average income, their contemporaries in Eastern Europe have a very different story to tell. Body without Soul grimly and graphically tells a tale that most of us would rather not hear or see..A selection of boys in their mid-teens tell their own stories - how they came to Prague and how they became seduced by the "easy-money" of prostitution, which eventually lead them into the world of hard-core porn. And in direct contrast to the boy's stories is that of Pavel, one of Prague's most prolific hard-core porn producers.

On the set of Pavel's latest production, we witness first hand the gruesome exploitation and abuse of these boys. We hear Pavel explain how hard it is for him to support his wife and children on the little he is paid by the Germans and Americans for making his films. He explains why he has to use underage boys in his films, and also why he has to force them to have unprotected sex.

And then of course, there is his day job...
