Two CockyBoys Titles Picked to Screen at 2014 Berlin Porn Film Festival

NEW YORK, NY — Two CockyBoy titles have been selected to be screened at the 2014 Berlin Porn Film Festival, now in its ninth year. The upcoming festival will take place October 22 - October 26 in Berlin at the Cinema Moviemento. The two titles that will be screened are Fuck Yeah Levi Karter (the documentary featuring an intimate look at the CockyBoy star's life and fast rise to porn stardom before having won Best New Porn star at both the 2014 Grabbys and Cybersocket awards) and Answered Prayers: The Banker (part one of the epic five part mini-series event Answered Prayers, an allegory set against an ancient family feud and the follies of men). The highly stylized project was profiled in America’s largest weekly newspaper, The Village Voice, with a multi-page feature story detailing the inspiration for the feature. The first screening of both titles is on Saturday, October 25 at 9:15 pm with an encore screening of both on Sunday, October 26 at 5:00 pm. CockyBoy owner and director Jake Jaxson along with Director of Photography R.J. Sebastian and Creative Director Benny Moorecock will be on hand to introduce the films and do a Q&A with the audience after the screenings. Additionally, CockyBoy exclusives Levi Karter and Ricky Roman along with CockyBoys' editor extraordinaire Cilantro Che Guevara will be in Berlin for the festival. The day before the screenings CockyBoys will be holding a fan appreciation event in Berlin on October 24 with the time and place to be determined. Jaxson says of the upcoming film festival, "I am very excited that our work has been chosen to be a part of this visionary film festival. The collaborative efforts that have gone into these two films have been a highlight of my career. I am even more excited to bring our team to this event so they can see their work highlighted and appreciated in this very special venue. I am proud to be a pornographic filmmaker and today I am even prouder!" The founder of the festival, Jürgen Brüning, says, "I started the festival because I thought, you know, I've worked in film for a long time and I've had explicit images in my films and my productions, so there was always this discussion; is this porn or is this art? I was kinda fed up, and at a certain point it came together that a lot of artistic people and independent filmmakers and even people from the porn industry were trying new things, and I thought, there has to be a festival where these films and videos can be shown. You don't get any public funding for it. We have very little sponsors, but we have a very great audience and we have fantastic filmmakers from all over the world."
