Thursday, November 3 - 7 pm
WRITER OF O
Directed by Pola Rapaport, 2004, USA, 80 minutes.
Published in Paris in 1954, "Story of O" was an immediate bestseller and literary scandal: an elegantly written S/M fantasy by the pseudonymous Pauline Reage. Years later, Dominique Aury, a mild-mannered editor for a prestigious French publisher, revealed that she was, in fact, the author. This rich documentary explores her original inspirations, recreating the world of literary Paris and setting it against vivid dramatic sequences that bring the infamous book to life - expounding on the thorny relationship between sexuality and power, submission and freedom, liberation and non-being.
Thursday, November 3 - 9 pm
"Negotiations and Love Songs"
Ah, romance! - a collection of short give-and-takes on the ebb and flow of power and erotic control in a range of relationships - from polyamory to S/M to ... celibacy?!? Program includes 'Polly Wally' by Kirby Ferguson, 'Open' by Teale Failla, 'My Last White Boy Crush' by Bryan Jackson, 'Sullivan's Last Call' by Francesca Rizzo, 'Power and Love' by Gabriele Hoff and 'Subtle Body' by Dunbin Phelless.
Friday, November 4 - 7 pm
Award Winner - CineKink Choice/Honorable Mention Feature @ CineKink NYC!!
ORIGINAL PRIDE: THE SATYRS MOTORCYCLE CLUB
Directed by Scott Bloom, 2005, USA, 56 minutes.
One of the first gay men's social organizations ever, The Satyrs Motorcycle Club was formed in 1954 and remains a vital group of Harley-riding, bearded and leather-clad men-loving men. This is first a journey back to that illustrious start, offering a look at the men who were there and framing their stories, memories and ongoing influences on the leather community.
Plays with Charles Lum's 'Pissies Not Sissies' and Alberto Ferreras' 'Bigger.'
Friday, November 4 - 9 pm
Award Winner - CineKink Choice for Best Documentary Feature @ CineKink NYC!!
PORNOLOGY NEW YORK
Directed by Michele Capozzi, 2005, USA, 85 minutes. Featuring Michele Capozzi, Neville Chambers, Porsche Lynn and Lenny Waller.
A paean to underground New York, circa 1970-85, this engrossing documentary brings together four of its most colorful protagonists - Michele Capozzi, urban explorer and self-titled pornologist; Neville Chambers, founder of the infamous F*ck Factory; Lenny Waller, long-time front-man of the meat-packing district's now-defunct Hellfire Club and renowned pornstar/mistress/shaman, Porsche Lynn - for a look back in time, an assessment of where we are today...and one very wild farewell party. (*=self-censored by CineKink to bypass various email filters)
Saturday, November 5 - 7 pm
"S/M at the Movies: The Good, The Bad and The Ridiculous"
Film buff and practicing sadist Thor Stockman presents a program of film clips on how leatherfolk and s/m have been portrayed in mainstream Hollywood films. Selections from nearly two dozen films range from the usual suspects like CRUISING and 9 1/2 WEEKS to modern classics by Scorsese, Tarantino and Woody Allen, and everything in between -- even some surprising scenes from movie musicals! You'll laugh! You'll cry! You'll cringe in horror!
Saturday, November 5 - 9 pm
