Mums Make Porn
Porn has hit the mainstream, with uncensored hard-core graphic material easily accessed by children and teenagers via their devices across the country, to the great concern of many parents.
Mums Make Porn is a new ground-breaking three part series produced by Firecracker Films for Channel 4, in which a group of ordinary mums of teenage children will research and explore the world of modern pornography and then produce their own film. Working with industry experts, the mums will be given all the tools they need, but they will be completely in control – from writing and casting, to directing and editing their fully mum-approved pornographic film.
Their mission is to create a film which not only works as pornography but promotes healthy attitudes towards sex and relationships for the next generation. They will have the power to show exactly how they want to handle the issues that matter to them most as parents, whether body image, consent, or ethnic diversity.
