In the movie Samsara by Pan Nalin, an older monk shows some sketches to the protagonist monk. The sketches are erotic in nature but when held in front of flame reveal true nature as skeletons. It's a very powerful teaching. Do these sketches have any significance? What are they called? This is the youtube link for the movie (look @44:37).
