The Brussels Porn Film Festival is made by the hard and voluntary work of a diverse crowd of pornographers, sex workers and creatives from all over the world! This year we have teamed up with SNAP! Festival, joining our teams and broaden the work with the help of newcomers that bring their new energy to the core of the festivals!

Meet the team that make everything happens:

MARIANNE CHARGOIS

As a performer, she exposes on screen or on a stage the fabrications of her activity as a BDSM Dominatrix. As a dissident sexualities event producer, she merges political and artistique issues with minority representation.

She is also a programmer at SNAP ! Sex Worker Art Festival.

CILU DIÈL

Young filmmaker with a social/political science and theater background, Cilu delves into essai and documentary genre from a queer gaze, either on set or as an editor.

CARMINA

Carmina began working in the adult industry as a journalist. Quickly she became a photographic and then webcam model, all at the same time writing about her adventures on her blog “Journal d’une camgirl”. Since 2017 she directs and produces alternative pornographic short-films, in which she usually put herself on camera, creating the production company “Carré Rose Films”. A feminist activist, Carmina usually takes public action and is also part of the organisation of SNAP ! Festival since 2018. In 2019 she took over the porn culture magazine “Le Tag Parfait”, where she is currently the editor-in-chief.

BAXTER HALTER

Baxter is a performer and visual artist. On stage, it used to call them King Baxter. Your Highness, Mistress or Madame when you’re on your knees. Baxter sails the troubled rivers of activism by being on the Post-Punk and Queer scene of Brussels, mixing Anarco-Queer, Sex Workers rights and esoterism. Trans intersex under T microdosing, Baxter love to be the satanic elf of BPFF.

ZYLE

Zyle is a sex worker in Brussels, but also a self-taught illustrator and comic book artist. Her works are often populated by hybrid and naked creatures, half wild and half protective, which she accompanies with poetic and naive texts. She also enjoys organizing events with her colleagues from the sex work or illustration industry.

ETHELLE

I love creating and playing,

taking deep breaths,

imagining,

and digging at the bottom of our veins.”
