François Sagat: From Porno to Cinema
French pornstar François Sagat is transitioning from porn into auteur cinema, taking a lead role in Christophe Honoré's new film "Man At Bath". Honoré chose Sagat because he "redefines the notion of masculinity", a construction which Sagat likes to toy with, by sometimes appearing in high heels or fishnets, a daring move for a gay porn actor, expected to embody a heightened virility at all times.
The story, set in Gennevilliers and New York City, revolves around a gay couple who tries everything to prove to each other they are not in love anymore. The title is inspired by a Gustave Caillebote painting at the National Gallery in London. The film also stars Chiara Mastroianni, daughter of Catherine Deneuve and Marcello Mastroianni.
"Man At Bath" will be released in France on September 22nd. Trailer below.
