BERTH MILTON
The Reluctant Porn King
1 x 52'
The RockınıRoll culture was in full swing by the time Private was founded in Sweden in 1965. Being the world's first full-colour adult publication, it was unafraid to make a statement, during an era of civil rights'
struggles. In an early edition, images of war were juxtaposed with a sexual photo, begging the question as to which was more damaging? There was only one answer.
As a child he was called the "pornkid". Berth promised himself never to work in the same line of business as his father, the founder of Private.
Yet today he runs Milcap, the worldıs largest pornographic empire. Milcap was recently introduced on the American NASDAQ stock market, and is valued at 200 million US Dollars.
His films and magazines are sold to 44 countries around the world.
Through the years, Berth Milton has only agreed to a handful of newspaper interviews, which
included 'Time' magazine. Many companies have attempted to gain TV access to this reclusive and intriguing individual. However, he has finally decided to collaborate with Airborne TV to film
this exclusive insight to his professional and personal life.
Berth discloses the destructive upbringing by his father Berth Milton Snr. He talks about his
reluctant decision to enter the industry he had always despised, in order to save his fathers company from going bust.
He has certainly succeeded in turning business around; each year Milcap produces 70 movies
and publishes 4 magazines per month. Milcap is the first pornographic company ever to be introduced on the American stock market, a manoeuvre that Berth describes as an opening for
him to finally sell his empire. But will he? There is a rumoured buy out of American giant, Playboy.
Comprehensively filmed across Spain, Sweden, France, Monaco, UK and the USA.
His fiancée Linda speaks from her perspective, and how she copes in a relationship with the "King of Porn".
