So much kink programming, so little time!!

There's so much great stuff jammed into CineKink NYC this year, here's a headliner overview of the schedule and a firmer grasp on how you're going to be spending October 18-23rd!

Kick-Off!
The festivities begin Tuesday, October 18, at 8 PM, with a kick-off party at Remote Lounge (327 Bowery, NYC). This gala event will include screenings, schmooze and a devious fundraising auction to benefit CineKink and also the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom's lawsuit against the federal government, "Barbara Nitke v. Alberto Gonzales," with activities on the auction block to be led by Party Princess Lolita Wolf, ably assisted by auction bottom, Boymeat.

Wednesday
The action then moves to Anthology Film Archives (32 Second Avenue, NYC), where we'll remain for the rest of the festival screenings. First up, on Wednesday, October 19 at 7 PM, is WRITER OF O, a rich documentary that explores and recreates scenes from the notorious S/M fantasy novel. Then, at 9 PM, XAVIERA HOLLANDER: THE HAPPY HOOKER gives an updated look at the life and exploits of the infamous international madam.

Thursday
On Thursday, October 20 at 7 PM, ORIGINAL PRIDE: THE SATYRS MOTORCYCLE CLUB is a journey into the internal workings of "The Satyrs" and their influences on both gay and leather history. And at 9 PM, LIBERTY IN RESTRAINT introduces the mentors, muses and masochists who have inspired the artistic endeavors of fetish-S/M photographer Noel Graydon.

Friday
The ride continues Friday, October 21 at 7 PM with MADE IN SECRET: THE STORY OF THE EAST VAN PORN COLLECTIVE, a deliciously perplexing labor of love about your typical local anarcho-feminist pansexual porn production collective. Then, at 9 PM, it's WOMEN IN LOVE, a video autobiography that dares and bares all in its exploration of relationships both monogamous and polyamorous. And, at 11 PM, the program "Nocturnal Envisions" brings nighttime ramblings of the feverish and fantastic kind - including the inspired ropework of Steven Speliotis, the artful imaginings of Maria Beatty and a few alien dildos on the march.

Saturday
On Saturday, October 22 at 1 PM, HEARTS CRACKED OPEN provides Tantric practices and techniques of specific use to lesbian and bisexual women, while DR. SUZY'S SQUIRT SALON celebrates the explosive secrets of the elusive G-spot. At 3 PM, documentary and porn meet in ENOUGH MAN, a groundbreaking video about sex and sexuality from the perspective of female-to-male (FTM) transmen. At 5 PM, the program "A Bear, A Pup and Lots of Uniforms" visits the sometimes elaborate, always intriguing worlds of fantasy roleplay. Then at 7 PM, it's "Negotiations and Love Songs," a collection of short takes on the ebb and flow of power and control in a range of relationships. At 9 PM, GOING UNDER is a sensuous and emotionally complex tale of seemingly impossible love between a married psychotherapist and a professional dominatrix. And, at 11 PM, PORNOLOGY NEW YORK is a gritty paean to underground New York, circa 1970-85, and some of its most colorful protagonists.

CineKink Awards Celebration - Sunday
On Sunday, you get to sleep in a bit - then it's time to put on your shiny finery, head on out to the spanking new Bacchus Studio (515 W. 29th St., NYC) and toast this year's fantastic crop of CineKink filmmakers and award winners. Scheduled for 8 PM, the festivities will feature encore screenings of selected best shorts from the festival, along with presentations of the festival's Audience Choice Awards - and of the special CineKink Tribute, a yearly honor that recognizes extraordinary kink achievement in mainstream film and television. Be sure to come out and send along your respects and best wishes!
