Porn always really excited me but not only in the sexual way, I guess you could say I was an exhibitionist. Before that I worked as a make-up artist and hair stylist, but I was looking for something else to do. Below, we interviewed Agassi about what he learnt from working in the gay porn business for seven long years and over 67 porn films. The film looks at the perks of being a porn and live sex show performer (travel, money, hot guys), Agassi’s heartbreaking relationship with his mother and how the sex industry can take its toll on your emotions. In the documentary JONATHAN AGASSI SAVED MY LIFE, director Tomer Heymann follows the Israeli gay porn star Jonathan Agassi from his first audition to the end of his on-camera career, which was prematurely brought to a halt by a serious drug addiction.
