Berlin Porn Film Festival Documentary

OK, it’s done. This is my mini documentary about this year’s Berlin Porn Film Festival. Most of it was shot on a Sony Cybershot HX9V – a pocket camera that takes rather good HD video but not so good sound. I actually bought it at the airport on my way to Germany.

Petra Joy Triumphs In Berlin

I had the wonderful pleasure of meeting filmmaker Petra Joy at the Berlin Porn Film Festival and she was just as smart, sassy and fun as I expected her to be.

Erika Lust’s film Five Hot Stories For Her was awarded best film for women at the Venus Eline Awards in Berlin last week. The other nominees were Petra Joy’s Female Fantasies and Renee Pornero’s film Viennese. On her blog Petra said that this was the first time an adult awards ceremony has acknowledged porn films made for women (if we don’t count the Good For Her Feminist Film Awards). So Read More …
