IXFF Spotlight: Narcissister

By Kuono • Sep 16th, 2009 • Category: Blog, Film Fest

I do a great deal of visual research at the Picture Collection in the Public Library in Mid-Manhattan. During one session, I found a 70’s era photo montage in the Erotic folder of photograph of a naked woman collaged into a photograph of a hot dog bun. The artist had also squirted red and yellow paint onto the image. The image struck me in diverse ways–the eroticism, the gross-ness, the rough technique, the offensiveness.

IXFF Spotlight: Allegra Hirschman

By Kuono • Sep 11th, 2009 • Category: Blog, Film Fest

This is Allegra Hirschman’s Directorial Debut, but Co-director April Hirschman has directed several other popular shorts. Shady Bi, a short spoof on advisory warnings told of the the “dangers” of bisexuals to jeopardize the tentative bonds of monosexuals (straights and gays) to get along. Shafted is different because it is character driven while still being campy and fun.



IXFF Spotlight: Éric Falardeau

By Kuono • Sep 10th, 2009 • Category: Blog, Film Fest

Cam Shot (2008, 4 min.) is a black and white erotic and fetishist film. I wanted to pay a tribute to the amazingly gorgeous women in expressionist film. Therefore, it is a visual essay about lighting, contrast, texture, and make-up. It was filmed in front of a black velvet backdrop with a single spot on the actress (a Lowell 500W). She has dark and white make-up over her whole body so the contrasts are really visible. I think the ratio is almost 16 to1!!! I almost exclusively shoot my projects on Super 8 mm film

Queering the Image

By Simon Shepard • Aug 21st, 2001 • Category: Sex and Culture

The San Francisco International Gay & Lesbian Film Festival — the oldest, biggest, and probably most fabulous queer film festival in the world — has never been shy about showing sexually explicit flicks. And that’s as it should be. Queer people spend more time examining our own sexuality than most other folks; dicks and cunts [...]
