Mixing cyberporn and “basement porn” footage together, Hose juxtaposes the revolutionary promises of sexuality of the '70s with the cybersex reality of the '90s. This rich visual examination of queer sexuality would not be complete without its sly piss-take (literally) about the fun of watersports.

What the heroes of the film themselves, whom Soviet doctors and politicians classified as a "risk group", talk about in this first "revolutionary" video film.

This was Domingo's last set of performances as Otello in La Scala. In spite of his relatively advanced age, he is still in excellent form, both vocally and in terms of stage presence. Nucci is also his usual self, delivering a performance of very high standard. Barbara Frittoli is an excellent Desdemona, in good voice and gives a very moving performance. Muti conducts with great emotion and tight accuracy, conveying the full orchestral drama of the score.
