Porn Film Festival Vienna 2020

With a 2020 theme of "What Is Sex?", the festival showcases and celebrates the colorful diversity of porn and stimulates an open, societal debate.

 

Porn Film Festival Vienna 2020

 

The mission of the Porn Film Festival Vienna is to showcase and celebrate the colorful diversity of porn, and stimulate an open, societal debate. Its mission is to bring the genre back into the public sphere of the cinema that is usually locked away in private quarters. As the organizers say:

 

The Porn Film Festival Vienna takes a critical look at the topic of pornography and deals with alternative porn beyond the mainstream. We want to stand up for and live diversity, sexual freedom and self-determined sexuality. We aim to create safer spaces without prejudice, to take actions that go beyond social taboos and to refuse stigmatization.

 

2020 Theme: “What is sex?”

 

The two previous editions of the festival had fascinating themes: 2018 was “What is porn?“ And 2019 was “What is shame?“

 

For 2020 they have chosen “What is sex?“ This might sound a bit simple, but it’s actually quite a complex question, but ” for those of us working with sexuality, it’s quite complex. As the festival puts it, “Who has the normative power to define what we are dealing with? What is sex, what is not? Where does it start, where does it end? We aim to ignite a dialogue about various societal and political phenomena that are commonly subsumed into the term “sexuality“. This debate incorporates a broad range of themes, from consent to buy politics, from trans rights to sex work.
