Erotic Film Festival Barcelona Is Back — Two Nights, 24 Films, All In-Person

The Erotic Film Festival Barcelona (EFF Barcelona) returns for its second edition with a fully in-person program that treats erotic cinema as what it is: a space for beauty, complexity, and honest conversation. This year adds documentary works alongside fiction, widening the lens to include real stories and lived experience — and prioritizes community by bringing everyone together in the same room.

The Essentials

What to Expect

Two curated evenings, 24 short films, and plenty to talk about afterward.

  • Night 1 — Fri 28 Nov: Narrative lovers, this one’s for you. A focus on story and character across borders and genres.
    Highlights: Boobies (FR), Men on the Moon (CA), Cursed Women (ES), Živa (BA), TGX (PT).
  • Night 2 — Sun 30 Nov: Bold, tactile, and experimental. Think raw sensation, visual rhythm, and boundary-pushing form.
    Highlights: Like Lightning (US), LEO & ANNA (IT), See You in Sodom (FR), Flesh & Fire (US/INT), Dissonance (NL).

Festival Strands (A Taste of the Themes)

  • Romantic Erotica: intimacy, tenderness, and the slow burn.
  • Queer Erotica: LGBTQIA+ perspectives front and center.
  • Fetish & BDSM: consensual power play and kink cultures.
  • Fantasy / Period / Sci-Fi: desire across times and worlds.
  • Documentary: real lives, real bodies, real stories.
  • Experimental & Avant-Garde: form, texture, and the abstract language of touch.

Awards

  • Film of the Festival (jury; €/$250 prize)
  • Audience Awards (two winners, decided by attendees)

EFF Barcelona is curated for connection—between artists, ideas, and the people watching. Come for the films, stay for the conversations. See you at Inusual Project.
