Xperimental Eros STOCKTAKE

Various Artists

Exploring realms both sacred and profane, XPERIMENTAL EROS invokes a shimmering fantasia of celluloid sensuality for the pleasure of our largest sex organ — the brain.

Using exotic tropes and erotic footage from the world’s oldest genre, our program of ardent auteurs spin grindhouse dross into arthouse gold with perverse panache.

Be it tales of sexual obsession, rejected letters to Penthouse Forum, or the Mr. Nude Trucker Contest of 1976, no subject is taboo... nor above deconstruction. X-EROS strips bare the spectacle of sex in cinema, poeticizing the cinematic language of the body.

“The images of XPERIMENTAL EROS mingle in the mind like one’s own flashes of memory and fantasy. A fragment of an act, a snippet of sound – all play, replay, recombine and again, please! – for a collection of works that are confoundingly X-citing!” — Lisa Vandever, Cinekink Film Festival
