CUM2CUT
Indie-Porn-Short-Movies Festival

Porn  

Porn Competition: pornography comes to the centre stage!

In the Porn competition, a four day long marathon, people are involved to spread all over the city of Berlin their own idea of phorngraphy and to promote and enjoy the pleasure of sharing pornography. Central idea is mixing up bodies and sexuality and, most of all, dedicating time and space to deal with sexual identities and gender tensions.

People who would like to participate are invited to cum to the opening party where a category-lottery will take place: draw your own porn genre!

In cinematography pornography is usually considered a subcategory: in CUM2CUT it magically comes to centre stage! The Wheel of Fortune will drawn for each participant a subcategory, i.e. splatter porn, gothic porn, silent porn, western porn, superhero, dadaistic porn, futuristic porn, horror porn, new wave porn, etc. The short-movies must be completely shot in Berlin after the opening party. This is the D.I.Y game!

The lottery-performance is scheduled at Velvet club, on 20 October, at 23.00h (see Programme).

There are just a few "rules" to follow when making the short movie :

  • a "@" symbol has to be shown;
  • the Berlin city map has to be shown;
  • a sound of a slap has to be heard;
  • the sentence "I used to have such a good imagination" has to be said;
  • the film should be not longer than 5 minutes and given in MINI-DV format;
  • the music used has to be under Creative Commons License*;
  • to support the production of the short movies, a shooting location will be suggested but we encourage participants to use the city of Berlin as a set to spread open pornography.

Three days after the opening party, participants have to hand in their short-movie (24 October, LUX club, before midnight).

All of the films will be shown at the end of the Berlin Porn Film Festival at Kant Kino on 26 October.

An expert jury formed by people involved in porn/queer subculture and experimental cinema will select two winners. The winners will receive a prize: not money, but something really special from the Cazzo Production Team and the Berlin porn scene!

At the conclusion of the Berlin Porn Film Festival and of the CUM2CUT Movies Competition there will be a great night-party at LUX club, on 27 October 2007 from 23.00h(see Programme).
