TIPF 2017 this week

Good for Her brings the Toronto International Porn Festival to town from April 20-23. The four day festival celebrates adult films that "empower, celebrate and offer a platform to discover progressive and positive porn". Samples of over 50 films with the best of the last 10 years and the best of 2016 to be shown at the Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema Thursday and Friday. VR will be featured on Saturday and the festival will culminate with a sexy gala on Sunday at the Great Hall.

Film judging is based on 4 categories: quality, inclusiveness, the "it" factor and hotness. They look for viewing options for diverse audiences that reflect society on the screen.

“Porn is everywhere and yet so private in how we view it. It also generally portrays a very narrow picture of who is sexy and what sex looks like. We started this festival because it publicly affirms a much broader experience of sex and offers a much more inclusive and diverse representation of bodies, pleasures, sexualities and desires.” Says festival producer, Carlyle Jansen. “People also feel conflicted about watching porn, worried that their consumption contributes to an industry that oppresses women. The Festival offers multiple formal and informal opportunities to hear from performers themselves about what their work means to them and how consumers can support positive and empowering sex work environments.”
Virtual Reality (VR) Porn will be explored and there will be seminars and free panels with special guests on Saturday.
