- Lucrecia Martel’s La mujer sin cabeza
A woman driving down a dirt road runs over something. At first, she thinks it is “only” a dog (this only is always negligible; one of the points of the film), but later, after the fact, she decides in her mind that it was in fact a child. Nobody can convince her otherwise.
A woman hits [...]

- 8th Baltic Contemporary Art Biennial – Szczecin, Poland
Armando Lulaj, Time Out of Joint
Szczecin is among the most depressing cities I’ve visited in Poland. I won’t say it’s my least favorite - that distinction would have to go to Zakopane, that overcrowded resort haven in the Tatra Mountains near the Slovak border, teeming with Russian ski tourists, bad food, and tacky souvenir shops.

- Cocksucker Blues
Where do I get my cock sucked?
Where do I get my ass fucked?
Here, seems. (Shhh…. quiet!)
- 3. PORN FILM FESTIVAL BERLIN: The Last Day
The 3. Porn Film Festival Berlin reached its ecstatic climax last night with a screening of Claudette, winner of the Maleflixx.TV Award for Best Gay Film at this year’s festival - even though it’s not a gay film or even a pornographic film, but rather an intimate hour-long portrait of one of Switzerland’s leading [...]
- Todd Verow at 3. Porn Film Festival Berlin
I have to admit that I haven’t seen any of Todd Verow’s previous films, but I admire the abrasive, fuck-you aesthetic you find in his latest, Where Your Heart Should Be, which received its world premiere last night at the Porn Film Festival Berlin (the film also screens tonight at 22:15 at Kino Eiszeit [...]
- Katharina Klewinghaus at 3. Porn Film Festival Berlin
As someone who was addicted to slasher films as a child in the 1980s, and who went on to read a ton of feminist and queer theory at university in the 1990s, I’ve long been fascinated with the contradictory ways that women and sex are portrayed in the horror genre. It is a subject [...]
- Charles Lum at the 3. Porn Film Festival Berlin
One of the highlights of this year’s Porn Film Festival was last night’s screening of a suite of short films by Charles Lum, The HIV Collection. Taken together, the films form a fractured feature of sorts that sustains itself thematically through a deployment of repetition that borders on confrontation, yet is never tedious. The [...]
