FEMALE HUNTERS SHORTS
78 min
With more films from the perspectives of women each year, this time we found an interesting new and recurrent figure: the female hunter. She rides a motorbike and takes what she wants. Or she explores the limits of sex apps. When riding the train, she undresses the boys with her mind. And if she ever is molested, she knows how to take revenge. Mercilessly. Bravo.

Panel Discussion & Hands-On VR - THE NEXT BIG HYPE: Can Virtual Reality Save the Porn Industry?

with Michelle Flynn, Lightsouthern.com Todd Glider, BaDoink.com Nina, Ersties.com, MetaverseXXX.com

After 3D technology failed to establish itself in our living rooms, Virtual Reality seems to be the next big thing in entertainment – at least this is what the industry currently is telling us. Lower prices for VR headsets which can be used for both, gaming and watching movies, might indeed pave the way for a development which enthusiasts call a visual revolution. A growing number of filmmakers is jumping on the VR bandwagon, respective websites are shooting up like mushrooms. However, the ultimate immersive experience still needs to spread out to John Doe’s bedroom. Pornfilm-festival Berlin invited three VR filmmakers to take a look on the status of Virtual Reality porn today. The panel which is moderated by Berlin based pornographer Falk Lux will focus on differences between 2D and VR storytelling and analyse the requirements needed for creation of perfect immersive VR porn. Also the thrilling promise to be „part of the action“ – frequently given by the sex industry to their consumers – will be put on the test bench. After the discussion the audience will have a chance to shoot questions at the panelists and to check out porn clips at our VR counter.

LESBIAN DOCS SHORTS
68 min

The third lesbian program this year brings you three documentary films with very different perspectives on sexuality. A personal and humorous narrative from China reflects on gender in society, a collage film re-contextualizes the story of the lesbian sex worker Aileen Wuornos in the US-American imagery and a performance video which investigates the relationships between vibrancy and stagnation, sex and death, and trash and nature.

PERFORMANCE: FOSSIL NIGHT

CERCLE SATYRIQUE (Paris)

Who makes our desires turn in circles? What do our veils hide? What terrifies our senses? Exposing the original adventures of desire from the perspective of our somber hairy caves on up to our illuminated epilated concrete accompanied by improvised live music. Fossil Night is a poetic fable narrated in music, objects and puppet shadows. A quest that questions desire’s mutations, since the origin of ardour which forces the bodies to penetrate each other, until their canalizations into secular politeness.
