What happens

Naughty, also known as Naughty! A Report on Pornography and Erotica, is a 1971 British dramatised documentary film directed by Stanley Long and written by Suzanne Mercer. Long said although the movie was sold as a sex film it was "a fairly serious film" which "had some purpose". Mercer called it "a serious sociological look at pornography and erotica." It mixes interviews with archived footage and re-enactments, and was screened at the Wet Dream Film Festival in Amsterdam in 1971. The same team later made a similar movie, On the Game (1974).
