BOUNTY HUNTERS

SMUT CAPITAL OF AMERICA

A gay friend gets dumped, ostensibly for throwing his cat off the bed, but that's not really the issue. And their best friend, a balding, 24-year-old virgin, is quickly becoming a 'creepy old man.' Maybe it was a lot simpler during puberty...

Thursday, February 9 – 7:00 PM
Directors Angela Tucker and Tina Horn will be joining us tonight for a Q&A!
(A)SEXUAL
Angela Tucker, 2011, USA, 74 minutes.
In 2000, David Jay came out to his parents: he was asexual and was fine with it. And he was not alone. Studies show that 1% of the population experiences no sexual attraction. But in a society obsessed with sex, how do you deal with life as an outsider? Combining intimate interviews, vérité footage and animation, with fearless humor and pop culture imagery, David and several others grabble a universal question for an outcome that might surprise.

WHAT MAKES US QUEER
Courtney Trouble & Tina Horn, 2011, USA, 7 minutes.
Attempting to define a queer identity, this explicit documentary juxtaposes queers having sex and audio clips from an interview that simply asks: “What makes us queer?”

A showcase of sexy, award-winning shorts deemed the best during CineKink’s 2011 festival run. In this year’s assortment: LOVE HOTEL (Erika Lust, 2010, Spain, 4 minutes) follows the fantasy scenarios that ensue when a couple checks in. BUTTERFLY CAUGHT (Joshua Bewig, 2010, USA, 7 minutes), follows a shy and studious girl transported to another world by a book on bondage. In TURNING JAPANESE (Paul Bickel, 2009, USA, 20 minutes), a couple stumbles upon an unusual way to turn around their dwindling finances. LOVE, HUGS AND KISSES, SISSY STEPHANIE (Mrs. G, 2010, USA, 12 minutes) is a profile of New York scene icon, Sissy Stephanie. In PISS (Vincent Peone & Bette Bentley, 2010, USA, 7 minutes), a feminist scholar struggles to fulfill his girlfriend's rather unorthodox desire. And in CACTUS (Anna Treiman, 2009, Denmark, 30 minutes), a woman hires a gigolo to fulfill her secret sexual fantasy of being raped.

Friday, February 10 – 10:45 PM

World Premiere
SEXUALLY FRANK
Frankie Frain, 2011, USA, 92 minutes.
Sex was an all-consuming focus to twelve-year-old Frank...and a decade later it still is a defining context to him and his group of friends. Frank now spends all of his spare time making “inappropriate” YouTube videos. His long-time girlfriend is being pressured to feel she should want to get married and have children. A gay friend gets dumped, ostensibly for throwing his cat off the bed, but that's not really the issue. And their best friend, a balding, 24-year-old virgin, is quickly becoming a 'creepy old man.' Maybe it was a lot simpler during puberty…

T. Arthur Cottam, 2012, USA, 2 minutes.

4) The week ahead
5) Brought to you by...
1) TONIGHT…CINEKINK SEASON OPENER - CABARET DESIRE!
Wednesday, February 8th - 7:00 pm
We're very pleased that we'll have some of the finest courtesans of The Poetry Brothel in the house, as we premiere CABARET DESIRE, the film they inspired. And, of course, with LAST KISS, we welcome returning CineKink alumni director, Charles Lum!
CineKink Season Opener!
CABARET DESIRE
Erika Lust, 2011, Spain, 74 minutes. US Premiere
Set against a sumptuous Barcelona backdrop and inspired by the real-life Poetry Brothel, based in New York, CABARET DESIRE weaves together several erotic vignettes, each introduced by a "poetry courtesan" at a bohemian gathering where readings, dance and music create a sensual vibe. A young woman grows tired of sexual labels and throws off having to choose. A poet recounts the unconventional escapades of his mysterious mother. At the brink of thirty, a woman looks at how her life has converged from the fantasies of her youth. The participants of a heated, short-lived tryst nervously anticipate their reunion an entire year later.

World Premiere
LAST KISS
Charles Lum, 2011, USA, 1 minute.
Remembering the love that dare not speak its name.

2) AND THEN… AFTER FALL, WINTER
Wednesday, February 8th – 9:00 PM
Continuing our evening, director/star Eric Schaeffer will be on hand for a discussion with the audience following his beautiful new S/M romance...
AFTER FALL, WINTER
Eric Schaeffer, 2011, USA, 130 minutes. Stars Eric Schaeffer and Lizzie Brocheré. A sexy, poignant and at times darkly funny story about two people desperately seeking love. Michael, a once-successful writer now in the depths of financial ruin, decides to spend some time in Paris to find new inspiration and a break from his situation. To channel his frustrations, he often seeks out sexual domination, a proclivity he discloses to no one. Sophie, a young French hospice nurse, secretly moonlights as an upscale dominatrix, as much for a sense of control as for the extra money it affords. Both desperately want intimacy and ache for a connection that will change their lives… and when they meet, their chemistry is instantaneous. Fear and fiercely-guarded truths, however, will doom their passion as surely as any star-crossed love.

CineKink Season Opener!
CABERET DESIRE
Erika Lust, 2011, Spain, 74 minutes. US Premiere
Set against a sumptuous Barcelona backdrop and inspired by the real-life Poetry Brothel, based in New York, CABARET DESIRE weaves together several erotic vignettes, each introduced by a "poetry courtesan" at a bohemian gathering where readings, dance and music create a sensual vibe. A young woman grows tired of sexual labels and throws off having to choose. A poet recounts the unconventional escapades of his mysterious mother. At the brink of thirty, a woman looks at how her life has converged from the fantasies of her youth. The participants of a heated, short-lived tryst nervously anticipate their reunion an entire year later.

Wednesday, February 8 – 9:00 PM
AFTER FALL, WINTER
Eric Schaeffer, 2011, USA, 130 minutes. Stars Eric Schaeffer and Lizzie Brocheré. A sexy, poignant and at times darkly funny story about two people desperately seeking love. Michael, a once-successful writer now in the depths of financial ruin, decides to spend some time in Paris to find new inspiration and a break from his situation. To channel his frustrations, he often seeks out sexual domination, a proclivity he discloses to no one. Sophie, a young French hospice nurse, secretly moonlights as an upscale dominatrix, as much for a sense of control as for the extra money it affords. Both desperately want intimacy and ache for a connection that will change their lives… and when they meet, their chemistry is instantaneous. Fear and fiercely-guarded truths, however, will doom their passion as surely as any star-crossed love.

But in a society obsessed with sex, how do you deal with life as an outsider? Combining intimate interviews, vérité footage and animation, with fearless humor and pop culture imagery, David and several others grabble a universal question for an outcome that might surprise.

CineKink Updates cinekink2012@cinekink.com CineKink Selects 'Cabaret Desire' to Open Ninth Annual Film Festival
CineKink is pleased to announce that the "Season Opener" selection for its ninth annual film festival, CineKink NYC, running February 7-12, 2012, is the US premiere of CABARET DESIRE.
Directed by Erika Lust, whose short works have won numerous awards at CineKink over the years, CABARET DESIRE weaves together several erotic vignettes, each introduced by a "poetry courtesan" at a bohemian gathering where readings, dance and music create a sensual vibe.
Set against a sumptuous Barcelona backdrop, CABARET DESIRE was inspired by the real-life Poetry Brothel, based in New York, and features some of its performers in setting each story into motion, tracing a journey through four tales of intimacy, love, passion and sex. A young woman grows tired of sexual labels and throws off having to choose. A poet recounts the unconventional escapades of his mysterious mother. At the brink of thirty, a woman looks at how her life has converged from the fantasies of her youth. The participants of a heated, short-lived tryst nervously anticipate their reunion an entire year later.
"It's a genuine delight to have CABARET DESIRE open up this year's festival and season," said Lisa Vandever, co-founder and director of CineKink. "Erika Lust is an amazing director, whose explicitly erotic work demonstrates a real cinematic sensibility. Gorgeous filmmaking, engaging performances and a great sense of story -- her films really exemplify everything that CineKink exists to encourage."
CABARET DESIRE will screen on Wednesday, February 8, 7:00 pm at Anthology Film Archives (32 Second Avenue, NYC), where the majority of the festival screenings are also unfolding.
CineKink NYC kicks off the previous evening, Tuesday, February 7, with a gala fundraising kick-off party, and runs through Sunday, February 12, concluding with an awards ceremony and an AfterGlow closing party.
