Ultimately, the legacy of the Girls Do Porn case is a stark warning about the consumption of "new" content. It forces a confrontation with the uncomfortable truth that legality does not equal ethicality. When the demand is for youth and novelty, the supply chain often preys on the most vulnerable, turning the "barely legal" fantasy into a human trafficking reality.
Remember the old formula? A plucky director fights the studio, nearly goes over budget, but saves the film in the editing room. Roll credits.
