CineKink Kicks Off 2010 National Tour in Las Vegas
May 13 - 15, 2010
NEW YORK, NY - CineKink--"the kinky film festival"--kicks off its annual national tour in Las Vegas, May 13-15, 2010. Starting with a gala benefit at the Erotic Heritage Museum and including several days of screenings at the Onyx Theatre, CINEKINK: LAS VEGAS will offer a specially-curated program of films and videos that celebrate and explore a wide and exciting world of sexual diversity, with works ranging from documentary to drama, comedy to experimental, mildly spicy to quite explicit - and everything in between.
The festivities begin Thursday, May 13th, at 8:30 PM, with a wine and chocolate gala benefit at the Erotic Heritage Museum (3275 Industrial Road, Las Vegas, NV; www.eroticheritage.org), to include an erotic rope bondage demonstration by Reverse Tensionz, a performance by the renowned Dr. Carol Queen from her work "Peep Show," and a live rendition of the CineKink award-winning music video, "The Pinky Song," by singer/comedian Alicyn Packard. The evening will also feature film shorts and clips highlighting the festival, and by noted photographer JM Darling, along with other fun surprises and a kinky raffle. Funds raised from the benefit will go to support the museum and CineKink.
The festival then moves to Onyx Theatre (953 E. Sahara, #16, Las Vegas, NV; www.onyxtheatre.com) on Friday, May 14 through Saturday, May 15, with several different film and video programs scheduled for each day.
FRIDAY
Among the headliners, first up on Friday, May 14 at 3:00 PM, WAXIE MOON features "boylesque" sensation Waxie Moon taking the world of neo-burlesque by storm in a hilarious and thought-provoking portrait of one artist's unlikely journey. At 5:00 PM, a special industry showcase, BRING IT!, features a dazzling array of talent from today's adult cinema, each representing a wide range of genres and visual styles, all stepping up with a hot sampling of their recent creative endeavors. And at 6:45 PM, the documentary, MY SEXUALITY: A SENSORY EXPERIENCE, shines light on five ordinary women from different backgrounds, sexual preferences and past experiences as they experiment with five deliciously different activities intended to boost both sense of self and sexuality, to be followed by a panel discussion featuring the film's director Felicia Giouzelis, UNLV's Dr. Lynn Comella, sexologist Dr. Carol Queen and others.
SATURDAY
Beginning at 1:00 PM it's YES, MISTRESS, the film shorts program that asks (and sometimes answers!) the question: "How may I be of service?" At 3:00 PM, SWINGERS has first-timers Diana and Julian inviting a couple they've met online to join them for an adventurous weekend in the country. At 5:00 PM, S&M JUDGE, is a compelling drama in which a respected judge finds his job, reputation and family life in jeopardy after he and his wife begin to explore sadomasochism. And, closing out the festival's regular screening schedule at 7:00 PM, BEST OF CINEKINK feature select, award-winning shorts deemed the year's best during the festival's latest annual run at CinkeKink NYC.
Following the final screening, the action heads back to the Erotic Heritage Museum for a closing party that will run until midnight, with a DJ, cash bar and other entertainment still to be announced.
