The Pornographer (2001) on Netflix

Plot summary

Jacques Laurent directed pornographic films in the 1970s and 1980s, work he thought carried the ideals of the 1960s counterculture. Twenty years later he is behind a camera again, short of money, and the business has changed. The producer backing the shoot wants hard-core sex, which is not what Jacques has in mind. He lives apart from his wife, and Joseph, his son, stopped speaking to him years ago, when the young man learned what the family trade was. Father and son are now back in touch. Joseph and his friends are arranging a protest with the aim of recovering the spirit of 1968. Jacques wants a fresh start for himself, and one of his plans is a house of his own.
