“Sex/Cinema” – Panel Discussion
What’s the difference between art and porn? The old joke is that “porn is in focus,” but it’s also an aesthetic distinction that is increasingly irrelevant. Just as more “mainstream” indie filmmakers are utilizing explicit themes and imagery in their works, a new school of directors working on the adult side of the industry are creating works that defy the porn clichés. Join us for a lively discussion of the blurring lines and sex on the silver screen! (Free event, RSVP suggested)
LOCATION: Theatre7, 1406 South 3rd Avenue, Las Vegas
ADMISSION: Free w/RSVP. 18+ only.

KINK CRUSADERS
(Michael Skiff, 2010, USA, 74 minutes; CineKink Audience Choice Award – Best Documentary Feature)
A loving profile of the International Mr. Leather contest, an annual event that got its start in the back of a Chicago bar over thirty years ago… and which now draws thousands of men from around the world to compete for a title and a sash. In tracing the history of the contest, the documentary also reveals the many ways that the Leather community, once a small, insular niche, has expanded into the mainstream. And it delves into the aspirations of its contestants, past and present, as they transform their lives through a competition that celebrates not only the art and beauty of masculinity, but also upholds the importance of service and community. Features interviews with IML’s founder, Chuck Renslow, along with past title-holders Guy Baldwin, Mikel Gerle, David Kloss, Tony Mills, John Pendal and Jeff Tucker.
Plays with BEHIND THE “SCENE” (Bo Blaze, 2010, USA, 24 minutes.)
