Unlike mainstream porn, the CUM2CUT
Indie-Porn-Short-Movies-Festival
focuses on the activities of the international
independent and
countercultural queer movement and presents a platform
where artists,
filmmakers, djs, actors and everyone interested can
collaborate.
The CUM2CUT Indie-Porn-Short-Movies-Festival has
developed in
collaboration with the Berlin Porn Film Festival
http://www.pornfilmfestivalberlin.de, the first porn
film festival in
the city of Berlin.
The CUM2CUT Indie-Porn-Short-Movies-Festival is an
independent
pornography competition. It is a three day marathon in
which
participants are invited to realize a short film in
the city of Berlin,
which will be shown during the Berlin Porn Film
Festival.
The main idea is to connect a heterogeneous and
international network
of
people who want to create art independently and to
freely express their
sexuality. Therefore, CUM2CUT is a networking platform
which aims to
create open and free artistic networks where people
can address the
topic of pornography without being marginalized.
CUM2CUTt is also an opportunity for participants to
play with concepts
of sexuality and pornography by producing and enjoying
indie-porn-short-movies: the best short-movies you'd
want to make and
to
watch. The idea is to broaden possible imaginaries and
"desirescapes"
related to pornography!
In cinematography pornography is usually considered a
subcategory: in
CUM2CUT it magically comes to centre stage!!!
The short-movies must be completely shot in Berlin
after the opening
party to promote and enjoy the pleasure of sharing
pornography all over
the city. This is the D.I.Y game!
The concept of play is directly linked to CUM2CUT:
body-games and sex
toys are the starting point for subverting mainstream
expression of
pornography, through the practice of détournement.
Cum2Cut aims to reach those who are fed up with
mainstream pornography,
who are frustrated by tolerating the rules of
normalized society. At
the
same time, CUM2CUT provides a critical perspective on
political
imagination and rejects the notion that radical
politics must always be
boring and serious.
CUM2CUT proposes an experimental concept starting from
bodies and
space,
spreading pornography as clouds of pollen to eroticize
the city of
Berlin, mixing up fluid bodies, nomad identities and
playful
sexualities.
The CUM2CUT Indie-Porn-Short-Movies Festival is open
to queer, homo,
hetero, lesbo and transsexual independent video- and
filmmakers,
pornographers, performers, screenwriters, directors,
queer cultural
activists and artists, free thinkers, excited minds
and all the people
that like to mix technology and bodies.
The purpose is to develop ideas on film production and
to share them
with an interested community for a participatory
exchange.
