Adult film industry in Seratof

Pornography in Seratof has a long and controversial history since the country's first inception in the modern form, and has been more widespread and readily available in the 21st century with the advent of and  technology. It has gone from informal productions and small-scale distribution ranging from magazines, novellas, and other images produced at a local level in its early stages to multi-billion studios and companies in the present day catering to an international audience. The legality throughout the various stages of the country's political developments have consistently shifted, although a steady stream of adult content and objects have always been documnted throughout the ages, regardless of the political structure and system.

The golden age of Seratofian pornography is widely accepted by most historians and scholars to exist anywhere between the late 1930s to the early 1960s before the rise of the Seratofian People's Party to power, effectively controlling Seratofian politics and regulations from there on. Attempts to ban it were finally successful with the passing of the Moral Decency Act of 1969 with a SPP-controlled legislature, killing of the legal adult film industry overnight, with many producers having to resort to overseas production or to back-alley and illegal filming sites and locations. Under the complete rule of the Seratofian People's Party between 1971 and 2006, all forms of pornography, including its production, sale, distribution, and viewing were considered illegal, and fines or even jail time would be given to offenders.

In recent years, the Seratofian adult film industry has seen a "", with the repeal of the stringent speech laws passed during the SPP period by the new moderate social democratic party, however, this resulted in the status of pornography being very ambiguous to its legality. While most consitutional and political scholars argue that pornography is legal due to it not being mentioned in any piece of Seratofian legislation, others argue that the potential for pornography to result in other crimes itself is a criteria that should ultimately render the entire pornography industry illegal. As a result, no legal framework for adult film industries exist in Seratof, however, adult film industries and studios returned from their decades of hiding and became legal through a constitutional loophole by registering as charities and non-profit organizations, with their actors as the recipients of "aid" and their members as "patrons" and "donators".

History
While small-scale productions have existed since the Samot-Seratofian Empire period, the legalizing of pornography and other adult-related materials with the passing of the 1932 free act bill by parliament paved a legal status for industries catering to the adult industry to set their legal basis and flourish in their creation with government oversight. The early period of Seratofian pornography was marked with a general increase in the forms published by these studios which now included, , and even for more higher-end studios and facilities. The backlash presented by the after effects of the 1932 bill was hotly criticized by more conservative groups such as the Seratofian National Majlis, which lobbied for more protection and oversight on these industries, with some factions even calling for a complete ban on pornography and its producers.

Although marred with numerous attempts to ban its production and distribution, the golden age of Seratofian pornography is generally accepted to be anywehere between the late 1930s to early 1960s, as several renowned production facilities and studios such as Árulim Studios and FS Estevir rose to national prominence for their production of full-scale ranging from 1-2 hours. The variety of pornography presented in the 'golden age' also increased in variety, from once only catering to the heterosexual industry to other varieties. The rise of right-wing conservatism and politics due to Seratof's stalemate in the Veksprë Börgum Confrontation led to the far-right Seratofian People's Party to seize control of the parliament in 1968, and perform a on the sitting president Lëžmar Kulopa Tindir in 1971.
