Filmography

Tough and Tender
Director
Eight twinks with troubled pasts find themselves under surveillance from the Center of Education because of their strong and frequent need to have sex. The leader of the eight stalks newcomers to the group without mercy: easy, willing prey.
Sacré Collège!
Director
Jean-Daniel Cadinot deals here with a particularly exciting subject, one which is dear to him. From the communal baths, through the kitchen, the infirmary, the sinks and the dormitories at nap time, Cadinot's camera, as light as a breeze, rolls up the shorts and reveals a world of special friendships that we knew, or would liked to have known. Their candor, tenderness and perversity disturb the adults who surround them: the gardener, the cook, the nurse, and perhaps also the reverend father.
Hot On The Trail
Director
Jean-Daniel Cadinot, the internationally acclaimed French Director and Producer of the most successful male erotic videos of all time, brings his long lost masterpiece back to Video! A troop of eight young men hikes deep into the forest for an exciting contest in woodland skills. They divide up into two teams, the "Reds" and the "Blues", and each follows a different route to see which team can find the hidden treasure and win the contest. Exhilarated by the sounds and smells of the beautiful countryside, sensuality is on the rampage, and these guys can't wait to share their own big swollen treasures with their buddies and a few lucky locals, including a hunter with a big gun, a fisherman and his long pole plus two farmhands with very heavy loads! Hot On The Trail, simply put, is a magnificent testimony to the creative genius of the man the world knows as Cadinot! Filmed entirely on location in the gorgeous French countryside.
