Description
Imagine the ultimate fantasy: to have your own sex stories and secret desires reenacted by other people in cinematic films. The erotica you’ve always wished you could watch, but nobody has ever created, until now!This is the concept that lies beneath Erika Lust’s most ambitious project to date: XConfessions. Her erotic short films are based on the anonymous confessions submitted to the site by fans and followers and published every day. This is the first adult project that is 100% crowdsourced!Real films with real sex: this is not a place for stereotypical porno-cheap imagery. To Erika, artistic pornography goes beyond design furniture, violins, glasses of wine, golden masks and vanilla sex. Unlike many other adult sites, at XConfessions you won’t find the same story or setting twice. Every short film is a story on its own, displaying a huge variety of situations, characters, fetishes and ways of having sex.On the night of April 15 at 7 PM, The Feminist Porn Awards guest director Erika Lust will be talking about this amazing and growing project at The Royal Cinema, and after her talk the audience will screen a selection of the best short films of 2014. After the projectons Erika Lust will be available for a Q&A with the public.SPECIAL GIFT ! Every person in the event that brings a closed envelope with an anonymous sex confession signed with an alias will be given in exchange a pass to become a free member of Xconfessions.com for one month.ABOUT ERIKA LUSTErika Lust is a filmmaker, writer and blogger based in Barcelona. Born in 1977 in Sweden, she studied political sciences, feminism and sexuality. Tired of the chauvinistic and tacky mainstream porn, she burst into the adult industry in 2004, with the indie short film The Good Girl – a humorous statement of principles.The immediate success of this first attempt encouraged her to pursue a film career. Besides the XConfessions series, Erika has directed four multi-awarded features: Five Hot Stories For Her, Barcelona Sex Project, Life Love Lustand Cabaret Desire. She defends the need of having women behind the camera in all key positions. Her female characters are sex-positive, powerful and active as well.Erika Lust has won several Feminist Porn Awards in Toronto.Please note this event is 18+ and government issued id may be required for admittance.*Premium tickets include admission to Erika Lust & Xconfessions: A Night of Indie Erotica (Wednesday April 15), Public.Provocative.Porn.
