An experimental erotic game. A man and a woman face each other naked; by the end they are mostly clothed and utterly exhausted. What happens in between is unique and completely improvised by the performers themselves. Restrained by the rules of their game, there is laughing, teasing, fighting, fucking, fingering, kissing. A love scene in reverse.

Starring Sadie Lune and Parker Marx, who have such enormous chemistry — and such fun —  that you can hardly believe this is their first time together.

With music by acclaimed folk-pop songwriter Zoe Boekbinder.

Adorn has just become the first ever adult film to win the  Sex And Media Prize in the Netherlands. This prize is given by the national organization of sexologists to the one media creation that inspired the most positive change in public dialogue around sexuality. Read more about our award here.

Adorn is also proud to be the winner of CineKink/NY Film Festival’s 2019 “Best Dramatic Short Film” prize.

Dubbed “The X-Rated Sundance,” CineKink features a carefully-curated program of films and videos that celebrate and explore the wide diversity of sexuality, with offerings drawn from both Hollywood and beyond. Works presented by CineKink range from documentary to drama, camp comedy to artsy experimental, mildly spicy to quite explicit — and everything in between.

The gorgeous steampunk-ish Amsterdam location where Adorn was shot is also featured in the cult Netflix series Sense8. Sense8’s cast and crew –including producer Lana Wachowski — flew to Amsterdam to shoot multiple episodes in Amsterdam in Season 2. They happened to select the same “hidden” location as Adorn. The space is now called Mayer Manor, which hosts the organization Tenclub —  a salon-inspired cultural organization devoted to decadent events that pique curiosity.
