Porn Film Festival Amsterdam dives deep into the realms of pleasure, exploring the joyful and political facets of sex. Going beyond conventional perspectives, the festival shakes things up by featuring underground DIY creators alongside established figures from the porn industry. It's a platform where the unconventional, the marginalised, and the mysterious shine. The festival aims to carve out spaces for engaging encounters, giving room for both intimacy and rebellion. Join us in reclaiming and celebrating our unique and sometimes unconventional expressions of sexuality.

VHS PORN

A selection from Filmhuis Cavia's 1990s queer porn tapes played in VHS.
With only 40 seats, Filmhuis Cavia is one of the smallest cinemas in the Netherlands, and the smallest in Amsterdam. They still show some of their films on 16 and 35 mm, but they also have quite a big collection of VHS tapes, some of which are very hot… You could say that porn is an old Cavia-tradition: already in the early days, when the cinema was founded from the squatters’ movement in 1983, Filmhuis Cavia has been showing queer, erotic and sex-positive films. To honour this tradition, we dove into the archive to make a special selection of Cavia's 1990’s queer porn tapes. Get comfy for a nostalgic tv-moment.
