★★★★ · Stop film and disciss! · Spuzz · 2015-06-19
After a brief rundown of how Venereal Disease came to be, we get the lowdown of how nasty stuff like Gonnorhea and Syphillis are transmitted and it's prevention. This film uses surprisingly frank young adults talking to the camera and doctors about how they caught it, and what can be done to eradicate it. Also has closeups of penis. Infected ones! Reccomended!
