BRUSSELS’ PORN FILM FESTIVAL IS YOUR OPEN WINDOW TO CONTEMPORARY PORNOGRAPHY IN BELGIUM
Established with the purpose of reducing the stigma around pornography and acknowledging its significant role in the history of cinema, the Brussels Porn Film Festival stands as Belgium’s first festival dedicated to alternative pornography. As the most widely consumed and produced audiovisual genre in the world, pornography exists simultaneously in plain view and concealed behind closed doors, avoiding public debate outside of moralistic standards. A rich countercultural phenomenon, contemporary porn embraces new forms of expression, serving as a potent political and creative tool for marginalized groups. Feminists, LGBTQIA+, sex workers, and other minorities choose to direct their cameras toward their own bodies, creating a presence typically overlooked by mainstream media.
The festival presents a diverse range of sexually explicit artworks, offering a comprehensive program that includes a national and international short film competition, a special focus on feature films, as well as professional encounters, panel discussions, performative arts, workshops, creators market and parties.
With diversity in mind, the festival aims to facilitate connections between different poles within the industry: the mainstream and the underground, the artistic and the political, DIY and big-budget productions... The objective is not to gentrify the genre but to promote ethical development by fostering professional connections, injecting new images into pornography’s imaginary, destigmatizing sex work, and cultivating an audience eager for innovative onscreen sexual representations.

Heading to its 4th edition, the festival has already received more than 2500 submissions, showcasing more than 300 films with an approximative attendance of 7000 people.
Who cums or squirts the farthest, who moans the higher, who could take the biggest... hand. There's many, many questions when we think about porn and competition. But what about a film festival? The idea here is not to create a concurrence, but to highlight creations that touch the deepest our psyché and that reflects at the bottom of dripping fluids the spirit of our porny time. To celebrate new ways of thinking pornography and to highlight productions that push the boundaries of what porn can be, or look, or sound like!
Since its first edition, the festival has held an international and national competition, with a jury board composed by 3 professionals from different backgrounds who will each represent an approach to pornographic or film productions. Our goal is to mix perspectives and to create a bridge between "traditional" cinema and the pornographic industry, by fostering interactions and connections between those two poles that rarely touch. With that in mind, our jury board is usually composed of a porn industry's personality, a porn film scholar or programmer, and a Belgian "traditional" cinema professional. Past jury members include names like Vex Ashley, Matt Lambert, Kis Keya, Carmina, Sarah Moon Howe and Nicolas Rios.
The jury delivers the Best International Porn Short, the Best National Porn Short as well as the Special Jury Prize. There's also a place for the public here, who deliver the Public Award to the film that has most captivated the audience.
For the Public Award, at the end of every screening you will be able to vote for your favorite film. The votes will be gathered on a ballot until Sunday, where it will be counted by our team before the closing ceremony.
Our prize is handmade by ceramist artist Simon Aubry Picaudot.
- For the 4th edition of the festival, every screening outside of special showcases or carte-blanches was in competition, with a total of 70 short-films.
- Our jury board composed by Bishop Black, Puck Ellington and Laurent Micheli granted the Porn Awards to the Best International Porn Short, Best Belgian Porn Short, as well as two Jury's Special Mentions.
- The public also voted at the end of each screening for the Public Award.
But none of which incorporated the aspect of tenderness care and love that this film has showed us.
From the outside perspective one might think that action in this scene are skewed in way as if performing them — but we would be remiss not to understand a beautiful tesutnmony to how the bottom care tenderness and concern are concentrated in this film. A visual celebration of black bodies is important and something that I would like to see more of so this film was a beautiful contribution to the world I’d like to exist in.
Jamal and Sir Malice created a beautiful space in which one can luxuriate in such a tender effort and we could not be more thankful for it .
This film made us all cry, shake and it made us question and evaluate the lengths in which a performer can go. The award for Best International Porn Short goes to Good Boy Doll, by Jamal Phoenix and Sir Malice.
For the Best International Porn Short we have chosen to highlight a film that both fascinated and unsettled us. Because we deeply believe that the power of cinema lies in its ability to shake the world in order to question it — and perhaps, to transform it.
This film captivated us through its use of powerful imagery and the truth of bodies as a political tool. A film that dares to show what society prefers to hide, and what pornography has yet to truly embrace: the sexuality of elderly people.
We believe it is essential to create images — and therefore spaces — for their desires, their fantasies, their bodies. And to show them as they are: beautiful, imperfect, hot and arousing.
Our first special mention goes to In All the Rooms We Met, by Bonaventure Tain. In the political landscape of this film, and the powerful and relatable imagery within, we find the film to be an important landmark of pornography in a way that is relatable to almost everyone.
We all want in pornography something that is evocative, sometimes what is evoked is a communication with pleasure centers that aren’t always accessible.
As a part of our decision to give an award to this film, we considered the aspect of danger the film has in its production, the laws regarding porn in this country etc. we thought it added a further depth to the vulnerability already exhibited and we appreciate that deeply.
Our second Special Mention goes to Les Fantômes du Hard 2. This film was chosen for a special mention, because of the importance of its message, exploring the rich yet conflicting tapestry of its past, and how we in the present carry the baton on to those who will come in the future.
As we will be all ancestors one day, this film made us think about what legacies we leave behind, how we can pass on the baton to those in the future, as well as reconciling the fragmentation of the LGBTQIA community, perhaps giving glimpses into creating a sense of unity in a world that is constantly shunning, attacking and murdering us, especially when some of those stigmas come from within.
With its focus on archiving history as a necessity and its thought provoking narrative, its story never left me and I continue to think about it, after leaving the film. I look forward to further instalments.

The 2nd special mention goes to Rope Burn by Color Block Films directed by Oran Julius, performed by Mae Muerte, Calba and AfroDisiac. It’s a movie that shows the blurred lines between pleasure, pain and playfulness. To quote from their webpage: ColorBlock Films is intended to center the erotic stories of BIPOC, fat, disabled and neuro-divergent folks all within the broader LGBTQIA+ community. We celebrate their collective work, the relentless output of making movies with such a political view and discourse challenging the way we make porn.
The Best International Porn Short Award goes to Wrong Holes Only from Carmina, June Fontaine and Revenge. This movie really stands out because its something we have never seen before. We were blown away by the tension, fun, chemistry, transgression of borders of what BDSM is, being able to show the genuine connection the performers have and how this made the cinema boil and provoked physical and emotional reactions in the audience. Everything you thought you would never see in a porn is in it: A stapler, a coronatest and worms."

The Best National Porn Short goes to a film that gives us a complete narrative experience based on its visual and sound qualities. For its huge technical accomplishment, the Jury gives the Best National Porn Short to Hold Me Tight, directed by Leoluna Robert-Tourneur. As a Jury we thought that as sex is something magical, animation is an unique way to bring us into an intimate journey through a world of fantasy, fetish, and for that we thank you
The second Jury Special Mention goes to a film that led no one indifferent, because of the way it depicts its subject, because of the choice of humor and the kitsch aesthetic used to represent a very specific practice (urethral sounding), the Jury offers the second Special Mention to Pop’s Corn, directed by Ethan Folk and Ty Wardwell. Actually we really loved the light ton and the way the directors use the laughter in order to bring the public with them and the way it is used to dedramatize and to end the taboo surrounding this practice (urethral sounding) that is so little represented on the screen.
