The Erotic Films of Peter De Rome is a collection of eight short
films that date from the early 1970s, some of which feature strong
scenes of real sex. The work as a whole has artistic, cultural and
historical merit and, in tone and treatment, is distinguishable from
a sex work.
From promotional material:
Highly regarded gay art films
Amateur filmmaker Peter De Rome first started shooting
8mm films in 1965 producing a set of painstakingly crafted, atmospheric
sexual scenarios for the amusement of himself and his friends. Pioneering
producer Jack Deveau saw one of these at a festival and convinced him to
collect eight of the shorts, blow them up to 16mm, and release them
commercially as The Erotic Films of Peter De Rome.
The eight short films in the cycle take the viewer
on a charged sexual expedition which exists at the intersection of artistry
and eroticism. Here, de Rome explores the full experience of intimacy the
longing, the pursuit, the passion, the afterglow, and in some cases, the
aftermath. From humorous to sardonic, de Rome truly pushes the boundaries of
filmmaking as his characters find themselves in surreal scenarios ranging
from a wondrous garden to an underground subway. The Erotic Films of
Peter de Rome showcase some of the most highly regarded gay art films
ever made.
