PinkLabel.TV was a proud sponsor of the 2018 Toronto International Porn Festival, running April 19-21st and produced by Good For Her in Toronto, Ontario, a feminist sex toy store which has supported the development and celebration of independent and queer adult films for over a decade. Rebranded as the Toronto International Porn Festival, the event focuses on providing more opportunity for screening events and panel discussions covering Sex Work and the #MeToo Movement, Trans and Black, Indigenous, and People of Color Visibility in Porn, and discussions on Ethics and Porn, as well as a DIY production workshop.

Over 50 films included works by La Muñeca Fea (The Ugly Doll), a documentary about retired sex workers in Mexico City; My Body My Rules, a political and feminist manifesto about body politics and female sexuality, by French filmmaker Emilie Jouvet; Bruce LaBruce’s latest gay films, It is Not the Pornographer that is Perverse and Refugees Welcome; Ages of Sex, by four directors, including Morgana Muses and Anna Brownfield; Second Date, a VR porn by Jennifer Lyon Bell, and shorts including RITUAL + WORSHIP and LABIA OF LOVE by Morgana Muses, DEVOURABLE, Ms.Naughty, DAY BREAK by Urvashi of Spark Erotic, and the films BIRTHDAY and WRITING IN BED by Shine Louise Houston.
