CineKink San Francisco 2009
CineKink San Francisco will take place from November 19-21 at the
Yerba Buena Center for the Arts.
Screening films include James Westby’s The Auteur, a farcical comedy about has-been Italian erotica filmmaker Arturo Domingo’s trip to Portland to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award; A.

CineKink NYC 2008
CineKink — the name says it all — has announced the opening night selections of its fifth annual film festival, CineKink NYC. The event, scheduled for February 26-March 2, 2008, is described as "a pansexual celebration that will also feature music, live performances and a fundraising silent auction."
The selections are:
Richard Kimmel’s Schwarzwald, which was screened at Outfest in Los Angeles last fall. The film, starring female-to-male transsexual sex star Buck Angel, "combines elements of Druidic ritual with the passionate, leather-clad goings-on of NYC’s annual Black Party."
Leah Meyerhoff’s Team Queen, a music video "that features some of the best in New York burlesque in a gender-bending, fire-breathing, tassel-twirling, post-punk rock ‘n roll extravaganza." (Meyerhoff, a former Student [...]
