The San Francisco PornFilmFestival is a multi-generational celebration of the industry’s history, and a look forward to the innovations of today’s adult filmmakers pushing the genre of sexual cinema. An accessible, hybrid event that takes place both online and in-person, screenings and filmmaker talks broadcast live from San Francisco, California to an international audience, powered by PinkLabel.TV. The 2024 festival runs online August 16th – 31st, with programs broadcasting live from the Brava Theater August 17-18.
In 1970, San Francisco broke ground as the first city in the United States to host a public screening of hardcore sex, with the International Erotic Film Festival at the Presidio Theatre. Sexual rights and free speech are as important now as they were half a century ago. The festival’s debut honors our city’s sexual rights movements and cinematic history.
The San Francisco PornFilmFestival seeks to showcase the creativity and craft of adult-oriented filmmaking from the San Francisco Bay Area, and beyond. Inspired by numerous adult film events, we want to specifically thank the Berlin PornFilmFestival for its namesake and guidance in forming this new American landmark festival. We embark on this journey to celebrate a vibrant legacy of sex-positive film artists.
