Sex Worker Movies at the Roxie

The San Francisco Sex Worker Film and Arts Festival has, since 1999, provided a forum for sex worker film and video makers to screen works about sex workers and the sex industries from around the world. The Fest will be screening around the clock, from 2 PM to a midnight show.

The matinee line-up of shorts starts at 2 PM with the show titled "Cages and Consent," co-presented with CUAV (Community United Against Violence) and 4 PM with the "Sex Workers World Cup." Both are fascinating collections, providing a wide array of stories and glimpses into the humorous, dire and mundane complexities of sex work.

Documentaries include "Transfrancisco" by Glenn Davis. "Sex on Wheels" by Jennifer Worley," "Red Lips: Cages for Black Girls," and "Mutantes: Punk Porn Feminism" from France featuring sex work sheroes Annie Sprinkle, Lydia Lunch, Scarlot Harlot and Michelle Tea (among many others).

"Devious Inc" is THE new and brilliant San Francisco fetish musical, screening along with "Titty F*ck Me" by Sion Shankel starring Trauma Flintstone in this style musical montage of campy, sexy bliss.

International work includes Bad Rehab (version of Lady Gaga's 'Bad Romance') from Asia Pacific Network of Sex Workers and Good Women of Taipei" featuring COSWAS (Collective of Sex Workers and Supporters).

The midnight show includes the provocative "Trans Entities," Courtney Trouble's "Bordello" and a special short featuring Jiz Lee and Mariko Passion.
