SINOSSI

FLUIDITÉ – La Fille Renne, Laure Giappiconi, Elisa Monteil (5’, France, 2021)
In my dreams, I fuck girls all day long.”
This short movie is about gender fluidity and desire.
It’s a poetic story, between fantasy and reality, on desire when we are non-binary, and our body and our genitals do not always match to what we would like to be, and what we would like to do, during sex.
The narrator are obsessed with fucking girls with his cock, but have a vulva; and the reality, with a prosthetic cock, is less exciting than fantasies.

LILAC LIPS, DUTCHESS COUNTY – Tristan Scott-Behrends (4’, USA, 2021)
A glorious fantastical modern retelling of Narcissus.

LETTING GO – Finn Peaks (12’, Germany, 2021)
Two genderqueer lovers engage in a kinky ritual of closure. They bid farewell to Finn’s boobs. Letting Go is a sensual portrait of the last play session before his top surgery. At the same time, the movie is Marilyn Nova White’s debut in porn.

FUDLIAKS! TEAR THE SEXES APART! – Jasmin Hagendorfer (13’, Austria, 2021)
This hyper-intersectional film is an amalgam of sci-fi creature-flick, campy music video, grotesque comedy, agitprop flick against heterocentric research as well as (soft-)pornographic subversive statement. FUDLIAKS! Tear the sexes apart! is set in an undefined present, in a mysterious laboratory: the Institute for Gender Normalization. The research subject of this neo-conservative think tank: the scientific underpinnings of conventional heteronormative bodies and biologically binary genders. But a new research series turns all that on its head!

FUCKING FREAKS CLUB – Nour Beetch, Nicky (19’, Belgium, 2022)
A queer mystery is being solved by a post porn ritual where two being will be exploring their non binary self to overtake their fear.
