The Hedonist tells the true story of the quick rise and fall of J Deeh, an aspiring musician with big dreams who unintentionally became one of the top pornographers in The Great White North before organized crime, the law, and betrayal fuelled the flames of his eventual downfall. In 2006, J Deeh was hired as a video editor for "Pornobec", a mysterious adult film company based in Montreal, Quebec. By 2008, J Deeh and his partner Miguel had become two of the leading porn directors in the nation, creating an endless stream of explicit films while struggling to maintain control over a lifestyle increasingly riddled with sexual temptation, sadistic bosses, wild parties, dangerous psychopaths, clashing egos, doomed relationships, and criminal organizations. Part memoir, part true-crime novel, The Hedonist is a candid and sometimes humorous account of a man learning that the pleasures of the flesh always come at a price.
