Yes, there is such a thing as a porn film festival and it’s actually in its second year in Brooklyn.
The NYC Porn Film Festival 2016, presented by Pornhub, Â is a 2-day festival held at 315 Ten Eyck Street in Williamsburg, opening on Saturday 4th June at 11:00am with the final screening 10:00pm on Sunday 5th June.
According to the festival website, the event “aims to give credit to adult film as a significant and socially/culturally relevant art form.”
While the festival is mostly a portrayal of film projects from well-known names — featuring the work of James Franco, artist Amalia Ulman, and iconic cult kink director Richard Kern, as well as community-based projects from up-and-coming creatives, it also involves informative lectures and demonstrations.
Here is a small selection of the 20 films, talks, events etc that are curated:
