Non-binary film maker Toni Karat invited queer and sex-positive people of the ‘Berlin porn bubble’ for this impressive documentary about narcissism and self-love. In authentic and touching self-reflective interviews ten protagonists who are as diverse as possible – lesbian, gay, queer, trans, non-binary and often over 50 – tell their sexual stories and contemplate their personal journeys and struggles. It’s an almost philosophical little masterpiece with a lot of honesty and authenticity on both sides of the camera.
Wilhelm Reich’s mythical Orgone Accumulator: part science experiment, part esoteric fuck machine, part reverse glory hole.

Five young Berlin filmmakers have come together and filmed their sexual daydreams. The result is a foray through urban landscapes: a cruising space is waiting on the parking garage roof. Painful power games relax in a cramped basement vault. And in the old heating power plant you meet for the illegal fist fight. The five short films are rough and playful, aesthetic and explicit: asphalter actress at the finest!

The evening sun falls on the roof of an industrial building. Two individuals meet – whether intentionally or by accident remains unclear. What follows is a scene in which dream and reality are very close. Blue hour is cruising, with a difference.

Passage by Jo Pollux
Editor
Spit and Ashes is a reimagining of the historical violence waged against women by patriarchal forces in the name of religion, medicine and family. The High Priestess embodies the wild, sexual and grotesque - the un-tamable hunger of female desire and the ultimate threat to male power. The Midwife is the spirit of all women who sought knowledge and agency over their own bodies and paid for their agency with their lives. Through a series of erotic and brutal rituals these women come together to reclaim their bodies and prepare for the fight ahead.
