I did a quick post featuring the preliminary trailer for Cabaret Desire – it’s erotic filmmaker Erika Lust‘s upcoming explicit film. I’m really excited about this movie! Cabaret Desire is set for release next month, and I got a nice email from her people this morning letting me know that they just uploaded the new trailer (embedded above). On the trailer page, we get a bit more from Erika Lust as to what this is all about for her:
I shot Cabaret Desire in Barcelona over the course of fifteen days. We filmed in nine different locations and with more than ten actors. I consider this movie to be my most ambitious project, and my goal is to show modern women and men enjoying their sexuality with an intelligent and fresh script.
I don’t like the way sex is portrayed in most porn films (stupid plots, ugly locations, ridiculous characters, bad lighting…), and I also don’t like the way mainstream cinema narrates sex (there’s always guilt, shame, bad karma, and the characters’ sexual behavior tend to get them in trouble). I demand a new genre where sex is portrayed positively, where sex is associated with joy and life. I’ve made Cabaret Desire to spark your imagination and fantasies, with an innovative mise-en-scène, beautiful sets, and characters we can identify with.
The Poetry Brothel from New York and its Barcelona branch kindly participated in this project. They are a talented group of creative and innovative minds that takes poetry outside its often stuffy confines and places it in the lush interiors of vintage saloons, classrooms and libraries. In Cabaret Desire, the poets unveil and narrate four amazing erotic tales to the audience and their presence gives the film a special atmosphere.
