SUMMARY:Sqifflix: Sexual Content Warning
DESCRIPTION:Click here to access the full programme. \nFor anyone after some slightly xxx-y content to make lockdown more pleasureable\, we bring you Sexual Content Warning. A sweet night cleaner has his work cut out in Canada’s busiest gay bathhouse. Disability activist Andrew Gurza reflects on his first sexual encounter and how the event shaped his identity. Scottish filmmaker John Walter addresses cruising and sexual risk\, in particular around the ‘cottage\,’ a public toilet that is repurposed as a space of sex. Gustavo is a photographer who captures the bodies of naked men in public spaces in Sao Paulo. And writer and poet Aurora Levins Morales\, a.k.a. The Gimp Gourmet\, prepares a very special recipe! \nAll films have English language subtitles or captions. See notes for below for each film’s language/s\, level of accessibility for blind and partially sighted people\, age recommendation\, content notes\, and if the film contains flashing lights or sound levels that might be disturbing for some. These notes are also found on each film’s page on vimeo. \nThe films are all free to watch with thanks to the filmmakers.
