Programmer's Pick

Greek mythology gets an unabashedly adult makeover, with gods behaving very badly and mortal intrigue simmering beneath the orgiastic surface. If your pantheon has room for both togas and taboo, Aphrodite’s affairs won’t disappoint.

Overview

The Affairs of Aphrodite transports viewers to a sensualized vision of ancient myth, where gods and mortals entwine in games of power and pleasure. The god Antiochus acquires a female slave for the deities Aphrodite and Apollo, expecting her to serve both domestically and in their notorious sexual escapades.
