Posted: 27/02/2015

(New York, NY) February 27th, 2015 – Pornhub, the premier online destination for adult entertainment, today announces their sponsorship in association with Secret Project Robot, a nonprofit art organization, of the first annual NYC Porn Film Festival set to kick off in Brooklyn beginning on February 27th at 5:30 PM, and ending on March 1st at Midnight. The event will feature screenings, talks, and parties centered on addressing the cultural implications of pornography in the modern age.

Event highlights will include talks from a number of well known artists and indie filmmakers as well as screenings of short/feature length films by Miley Cyrus (Tongue Tied), James Franco (Kink), Tila Tequila (Tila Tequila: Backdoored & Squirting). Following the daytime programs the Festival will include two evening events: Friday from Josh Cheon AKA Dark Entries (SF) with a live performance from internationally acclaimed artist Heatsick (Berlin - supported by Cockyboys.com) and on Saturday a cosplay event from 3D SLUT hosted at (Chicago, venue TBA) featuring DJs and a live performance from K Rizz.

“As a premier purveyor of mainstream digital and online pornography, Pornhub is proud to sponsor New York City’s first ever porn film festival,” says Corey Price, Vice President, Pornhub. “We’re honored to have the privilege of helping to usher in a new wave of rising stars by providing a voice for those looking to thrust their way into the adult industry with a bang. This event will bring together creative, up-and-coming talent that will surely strive to play a pivotal role within the industry for years to come. It’ll be exciting to see what sorts of entries will surface for screening, as we’re bracing for a large variety of different films; everything from harrowing tear-jerkers to art-house masterpieces. We can’t wait!” The festival hopes to spark dialogue about pornography and its place in mainstream culture to ultimately reconsider long-held stigmas surrounding adult content, sex, and lifestyles by exploring a plethora of pornographic offerings from amateur filmmakers and celebrities set to breach a number of existing cinematic porn trends, provide unique takes on existing ones, and even create new, mind-bending alternatives by blending genres and styles.

Pornhub has struck this partnership with Secret Project Robot to bring its own branding into the mix and ultimately help to contribute a positive message to the growing debate around adult content in a way that helps to elevate the conversation and change misconceptions about porn being classified as art. Pornhub also invites users to create their own “PORNHUB: NYC PORN FILM FESTIVAL” video playlists in celebration for the event. For more information, visit www.nycpornfilmfestival.com.
