CYBERSPACE—Courtney Trouble says that the latest project from TROUBLEfilms “might not change the world, but it might make it easier to bear.” The movie, Fucking Against Fascism, is now available only as a digital download through the filmmakers and RealQueerPorn.com. The link to purchase can be found here.
“I think it’s about seeing the moments where the revolution rests in the body, or in some cases maybe the sexual body is where the revolution begins,” Courtney Trouble says about Fucking Against Fascism, which was made with Chelsea Poe.
This film is full of activists but it aims for an “effortless, casual” vibe. Trouble says the movie is more high art than high alert, “but I think that’s what makes it an interesting take on what an anti-fascist film could look like. Like, more conversational?”
Fucking Against Facism falls somewhere in between Bruce LaBruce’s The Revolution Is My Boyfriend and self-labeled “post-porn” producers Four Chambers, a “conceptual pornography project making films with sex and cinema.”
“We use our signature neon lights and ambient noise to make our mark, but that hybrid of political meaning and sensual voyeurism is part of a larger conversation of porn that questions the status quo and refuses to conform,” says Trouble, who gets double-penetrated by Poe and Sinn Sage in the final scene.
Fucking Against Fascism is also a benefit film (like TROUBLEfilms’ first release, Live Sex Show). One-third of the profits of sales from RealQueerPorn.com will be donated by Chelsea Poe. Trans Lifeline, Black Lives Matter and a few other entities will be benefactors if the film has continued sales online.
The movie will also be shown in Europe on an upcoming tour through London, Paris, Amsterdam and Berlin. Visit the Troublefilms Events page to get details for the upcoming screenings. TROUBLEfilms and the Euopean-based Sluts4Sluts Collective will be showing together on this four-city tour, with local guests in every city.
