Dusk Porna Awards 2013: Skin. Like. Sun nominated for Best Film

Posted on August 21, 2013

By Jennifer Lyon Bell

Dusk's female panelists will be selecting the Best Film, and we're very pleased that our film Skin. Like. Sun. has been nominated for the honor. Sex-positive feminist porn pioneer -- and personal hero-- Candida Royalle will be the guest of honor at the ceremony.

Holland’s very own “porn for women” cable channel is hosting the very first Dusk Porna Awards, to honor the film best loved by their female panelists over the three years since Dusk began.

 

“Porna” is Dusk’s witty term for “porn for women”, and the Dutch media has embraced it as a simple way to point out that — yes! — women do enjoy porn too.

 

I’m super-honored that Skin. Like. Sun., the film  I made with friend and collaborator Murielle Scherre (La Fille D’O), is in the 7 nominees for the Dusk Porna Award 2013!

 

The other nominated films include:

 

The Kiss – Kendo

Aphrodite Superstar – Candida Royalle

Your Orgasm Inside Me – Dane Jones

Cabaret Desire – Erika Lust

A Taste Of Joy – Petra Joy

Don Juan’s Therapist – Nica Noelle

 

The party’s only open to Dusk’s 1000+ female panelists…a good reason that our female readers here should consider signing up as panelists for next year! The party is called the Zwoel Zomer Event (“Sultry Summer Event”) and will offer sexy performances, comedy by Soula Notos, cocktails, and a chance to personally party with top porna directors such as Anna Span, Erika Lust, and the godmother of us all, Candida Royalle.  Here’s  a little video about the awards on YouTube (Dutch spoken).

 

The event is  next Saturday September  7, 2013. Please help us by crossing your fingers for Skin. Like. Sun.!

Vrij Nederland singles out Matinée for praise

Kudos to journalist Kees Driessen of Vrij Nederland, who offers a thoughtful and historical exploration of women and erotic/porn film in his article "Finally Here Come The Women." Showing our film Matinée to female viewers, we were happy to hear "Fantastic. Possibly the best sex scene ever. And I don't think it's just for women. Lots of my men friends would enjoy this too."...
