A recent widow named Camille falls into a strange, long-distance courtship with a librarian named Delphine, her dead husband’s first wife. LIBRARY HOURS is a queer, femme-driven love story about books and bondage.

Provocative, yet Fifty Shades smarter than…that other movie.

“Beautifully shot and impeccably realized…a lush tale of literary longing, a sumptuous meeting of both mind and flesh.” ~ Lisa Vandever, CineKink

Director’s Statement:
The film is a revisionist throwback to vintage erotica that favors empathy over objectification, and stylistic purpose over the male gaze. Too often I find popular media’s depictions of BDSM a bit nefarious, coercive, sex-negative, or otherwise puritanical. Instead, I invite viewers to ponder the characters’ sensual, and consensual, interplay of fantasy vs. reality.

Curator's Note: PinkLabel.TV is curated by its creator Shine Louise Houston based on a set of criteria that aims to expand our notions of adult film. Our collection includes erotic and adult videos that often exist outside of conventional pornography, whether in depictions of bodies and desires that are underrepresented in commercial porn, through titles with historical cultural relevance, or movies with original concepts and cinematic craft. With these factors taken into consideration, we hope you appreciate the film.

Troubleshooting Streaming Video On your Computer:

Try Another Video: Try viewing another episode on the site to see if you encounter the same problem. If only one video on the site is causing an issue, please contact us via the form below (and mention which video is causing trouble).
Refresh Your Browser Window: This will reset the player, in case a temporary error occurred.
Close Other Tabs and Windows: Other open websites can sometimes conflict with video playback or overtax your computer's memory.
Check your Browser version: Our site works optimally on the latest version of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Internet Explorer. You can check your browser version and update to the latest at whatbrowser.org.
There is a rare issue with hardware acceleration in Chrome that can interfere with video - if Chrome is updated but video still fails to play, try watching in Firefox or another browser.
Check Your Internet Connection: Measure your current data speed at Speedtest.net and insure your current download speed matches what your ISP promises to provide. If it clocks lower than it should, make sure no one else on your network is downloading large files or streaming video, that you haven't exceeded any data quotas set by your ISP, and that you have a strong connection if on wifi.
If those aren't an issue, try resetting your home network:
  1. Turn off your computer.
  2. Unplug your Modem.
  3. Unplug your router if it's a separate device.
  4. Wait for around one minute.
  5. Plug in your modem and wait about a minute until all indicator lights are on. Then do the same for your router if you have one.
  6. Turn on your computer and wait for it to reconnect, then test your connection again.
If your connection speed is still lower than it should be, contact your ISP.

If none of these steps helped, and your internet connection is fine, please contact us via the form below! Give as much detail about the error you see and the steps you've tried as you can, including what browsers and operating system you use.
