A queer.red Presentation
World Premiere of three supported projects + Filmmaker Talk
What does it take to make porn? Technical skills, the right hardware and software, money, people and time. For sex workers, gathering all of these resources can be a challenge. But sex workers are resourceful as fuck! Often creating art that injects a breath of fresh air into the language of porn. More than that, they’re reshaping how porn is produced, infusing their sets with fun and care that is unmistakable to the audience.
Believing in the audacious creativity of sex workers, queer.red presents! gave a final push to three queer sex workers to bring their porn projects to completion. In this session, we’ll celebrate the premiere of these films and dive into a conversation with the filmmakers about their creative processes, the obstacles they faced and how they overcame them.
THE BOXER
Jaq Quicksilver & Jude Ecole
A prize-fighter’s personal training session.
THE UPTOWN
Vivi Stone & Mx Mayhem
Vivi puts a personals ad in a fetish mag, looking for adventure in San Francisco. She and Mx. Mayhem meet for a hot anonymous encounter, but in a town this small, they were destined to awkwardly run into each other at the local queer bar.
IN MY ROOM (FIRST ENCOUNTER)
Bear Silver & Fitgirl
A music video for the music of FitGirl
The afterparty. A ritual both connective and fleeting, intimate and anonymous. This film explores the lines between fantasy and reality, inhibition and release. As we gather between night and day, our bodies yearn for touch. For our desires to be fulfilled.
And more…. Stay tuned while the film makers put their finishing touches on their work!
