Political Porn Shorts
Shortfilm program, 82 min.
Porn is political and these films are tough. AMERICAN REFLEXXX is a short film documenting a social experiment that took place in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Director Alli Coates captured performance artist Signe Pierce as she strutted down a busy oceanside street in stripper garb and a reflective mask. The pair agreed not to communicate until the experiment was completed, but never anticipated the horror that would unfold in less than an hour. The film PREDATORY PROSTITUTE is rooted in the compelling relationships sex workers have, both directly and indirectly, to the legacy of Aileen Wuornos. Demonized as an inverted prostitute serial killer or pitied as a child/animal-minded victim, her portrait hangs heavy. In MY REFUGEE STORY LGBTIQ living in Lebanon tell their stories and how society and their families treat them. In ENTHRALLED the African American director makes the connection between oppression and sexual desires visible.
