Overview

There are hundreds of sex workers to whom the protection of the law at a labour and civilian level is not recognised. For that reason, in a similar way to what happens in many countries, they demand the end of the discrimination, the change of the law and the social power that has been denied to them. This film is a journey into the underworld of sex workers and their struggle for labour rights.

A Kiss on the Mouth

Jan 2, 1987

Made in the "Boca do Lixo" district in São Paulo, this work explores the world of women prostitutes in downtown São Paulo. The author allows the narrative to be led by the interviewees themselves, removing the reporter's voice and intervening as little as possible in the editing of the testimonies. At a time when AIDS was primarily associated with gay men, most of the prostitutes say they don't believe they can be infected and refuse to use condoms. One of them shares that she used to be a madam and a drug dealer, but now lives like an ordinary worker, working from 10 to 7 and raising her children. Another recalls her time as a domestic worker, earning in one month what she now makes in a single day as a prostitute. The soundtrack features songs by Milton Nascimento and Mutantes.

For some, the darkest mechanisms of the Internet have been a curse, as in the most serious cases of revenge porn that have occupied the pages of national newspapers in recent years, while for others the sharing of one's own individual experience has become a means of daily confrontation with those who have a similar life path or simply for a progressive normalization of life stories much more common than we believe. In this documentary film girls and guys talk about their sexual sphere on social networks, some in a way more playful, others making it an art, still others for informational purposes, while some even built a career. Thanks to each of their points of view, an overall picture of the relationship between sexuality and the internet emerges for the new generations.

Kink Shame

Invalid Date

Wild sex, fetish, and kink culture has never been so prevalent in the mainstream. Sex work is all over social media, musicians use kink as an aesthetic, and porn stars are becoming celebrities. This commodification is trying to water down and hijack what is a truly rebellious and alternative scene for the sexual misfits of society. As the astroturfed mainlining of girl boss fetish content spreads, there exists another world that stays true to the origins of extreme kink / fetish culture. Specifically in Britain, a more underground and loosely connected scene is thriving. They want to keep kink raw and real. These people, however, are being derailed by new laws and thieving creators. Away Days spent months exploring this sexual fetish underground. This will shock you.
