From Peter's background as a virginal employee of the Holy Hardware computer company (motto: Log On To The Lord!), he is thrust into the sex glamour shock of these big fetish clubs and parties.

Beautiful girls are there in abundance doing wicked things! The Member of Parliament, Henry Harding (Tom Bell), for whom Peter works, is delighted at the incriminatory evidence his protegé soon gathers against the clubs.

Peter, however, becomes infatuated with Tanya Cheex (Guinevere Turner), a sex goddess from New York and leader of the fetish club scene on both sides of the Atlantic.

He wants her to calm down, become "normal", and avoid going to jail. She wants to pervert him. The question is, who will win? There follows a moral dilemma for Peter of whether to give evidence in court against the woman who both attracts and repels him. He wants desperately to have a conventional relationship, which means making love.... She loves him and is happy to play lots of games in bed but will never allow a mere man the pleasure of intercourse with her.

Peter's journey as an innocent abroad is presented in an amusing, upbeat and stylized way as the adventure turns more bizarre. Although some of the events portrayed in these clubs really do happen, this film is far removed from the traditional realism of British cinema.

The world's first feature film set in the fetish club scene, released in 1997 to both controversy and acclaim, soon reached "cult favorite" status (The Boston Phoenix) and was the last film of the 20th Century to be banned in Ireland!

Directed by two-time British Academy Award winner Stuart Urban (OUR FRIENDS IN THE NORTH, REVELATION), PREACHING TO THE PERVERTED has been hailed as a "ROCKY HORROR for the chemical generation - truly exhilarating." (Melody Maker)
