Erotic Film Festival London is here to showcase bold, beautifully crafted films that explore desire, intimacy, and human connection. No gimmicks, no awkward labels—just great storytelling that puts pleasure and passion on screen where they belong.
Erotic storytelling has long been sidelined or treated as a curiosity, dismissed or reduced to shock value. Here at EFFL it’s given the creative respect it deserves—because passion, pleasure, and longing are as much a part of life as love, loss, and adventure.
We want your bold, daring, and unforgettable erotic short films—whether they’re hot and steamy, intimate and tender, thought-provoking or tense. Erotic cinema isn’t one-size-fits-all, and we welcome stories in any genre—from documentary to sci-fi, fantasy to kink, animation to experimental. If your film explores desire, connection, or sexuality, we want to see it.
Selected films will be grouped into curated programmes, each offering a different perspective on intimacy, desire, and connection. These intimate screenings will take place in London from 1–5 October 2025, bringing together audiences eager to experience bold and boundary-pushing storytelling.
For filmmakers who can attend, there will be opportunities for Q&As, discussions, and networking, giving both filmmakers and audiences the chance to connect, exchange ideas, and celebrate the art of erotic cinema together.
This isn't just a festival—it's the beginning of a movement that recognises erotic cinema as one of the most vital, under-explored frontiers in contemporary cinema.

V Festival Americano de Cinema Socioambiental
traduce al ingles: V Festival Americano de Cinema e Vídeo Socioambiental de Iraquara
A degradação ambiental e social começa a preocupar a humanidade como um todo. Isso porque a busca por um lucro rápido e fácil gera tal degradação, afetando a coletividade em geral, forçando a cada um de nós a adotar mudanças de atitude, para que, dessa forma, possamos garantir a nossa própria sobrevivência no Planeta.
Os problemas decorrentes da ação negativa do homem sobre a natureza têm sido objeto do olhar não só do Poder Público, mas também da sociedade civil organizada, além de ter se transformado em fonte de inspiração para artistas que almejam registrar e denunciar a deterioração do ser humano e da natureza. Sendo assim, o cinema e o vídeo são os veículos adequados para documentar e delatar as graves agressões ao ecossistema. A partir daí, possibilitar o acesso às obras produzidas com essa temática é uma forma de envolver as pessoas nesse movimento de conscientização para preservação do planeta e da raça humana.
Iraquara, fincada na Chapada Diamantina, na Bahia, tem um patrimônio natural de valor inestimável: lá se encontra o maior acervo espeleológico da América do Sul. E é também por isso que essa pequena cidade dá seu aporte nesse processo de conscientização ambiental, realizando o V Festival Americano de Cinema e Vídeo Socioambiental de Iraquara – V FASAI CINE VÍDEO. Com o objetivo de apoiar e ampliar a rede de defesa do meio ambiente e do ser humano, serão exibidas e premiadas obras de cinema e vídeo – longa, média e curta metragens – com temática socioambiental no V FASAI.
A proposta, também, passará por realizar palestras e debates sobre a água, esse precioso bem finito que a natureza nos dá; debater sobre o desmatamento que tem assoreado nossos rios e degradado terras antes férteis; debater sobre um dos graves problemas de nossa época que são as toneladas de resíduo sólido que produzimos diariamente e os descartamos sem qualquer critério no solo. Queremos transformar tais debates que serão travados durante o IV FASAI CINE VÍDEO em ações concretas na própria cidade, modificando o cotidiano da população local e estimulando a prática de cidadania em cada indivíduo. O município poderá mostrar ao mundo como o Poder Público pode e deve interferir no processo de conscientização e mudança de atitude de sua população.
O V FASAI CINE VÍDEO convida vocês realizadores e realizadoras que fazem da sua arte uma ferramenta na luta por um mundo melhor; vocês, ambientalistas que registram as suas lutas com tecnologias audiovisuais para denunciar e combater os crimes que convivemos no nosso dia-a-dia, a inscreverem suas obras audiovisuais que tematizem sobre a natureza e a sua degradação corrente em nosso V Festival Americano de Cinema e Vídeo Socioambiental de Iraquara.
A cidade lhes espera de braços abertos para que juntos possamos apontar ações que prenunciem uma melhor qualidade de vida em nossa cidade, em nosso país e, quiçá, no mundo!
V American Festival of Socio-Environmental Film and Video of Iraquara
Environmental and social degradation is beginning to concern humanity as a whole. This is because the pursuit of quick and easy profits generates such degradation, affecting the collective as a whole, forcing each of us to adopt changes in attitude so that, in this way, we can ensure our own survival on the planet.
The problems arising from the negative actions of humans on nature have been the focus of not only the Public Authorities but also organized civil society. Moreover, they have become a source of inspiration for artists who seek to document and denounce the deterioration of both humanity and nature. Thus, film and video are the appropriate mediums to document and expose the serious aggressions against the ecosystem. From there, providing access to works produced with this theme is a way to involve people in this movement of awareness for the preservation of the planet and the human race.
Iraquara, located in the Chapada Diamantina region of Bahia, has a natural heritage of immeasurable value: it is home to the largest speleological collection in South America. And it is also for this reason that this small town contributes to this process of environmental awareness by hosting the V American Festival of Socio-Environmental Film and Video of Iraquara – V FASAI CINE VIDEO. With the goal of supporting and expanding the network of defense for the environment and humanity, films and videos—feature-length, medium-length, and short—with socio-environmental themes will be screened and awarded at the V FASAI.
The proposal will also include lectures and debates on water, that precious and finite resource that nature provides us; discussions on deforestation, which has silted our rivers and degraded once-fertile lands; and debates on one of the serious problems of our time: the tons of solid waste we produce daily and discard without any criteria into the soil. We aim to transform the debates held during the IV FASAI CINE VIDEO into concrete actions within the city itself, changing the daily lives of the local population and encouraging the practice of citizenship in each individual. The municipality will be able to show the world how the Public Authorities can and should intervene in the process of raising awareness and changing the attitudes of its population.
The V FASAI CINE VIDEO invites you, filmmakers and artists who use your craft as a tool in the fight for a better world; you, environmentalists who document your struggles with audiovisual technologies to denounce and combat the crimes we face in our daily lives, to submit your audiovisual works that address the theme of nature and its ongoing degradation to our V American Festival of Socio-Environmental Film and Video of Iraquara.
The city awaits you with open arms so that together we can propose actions that foreshadow a better quality of life in our city, in our country, and perhaps in the world!
