How shall we mount the barricades if we can’t even manage to go out of bed in the morning?

A clan of four young girls has retreated to a hut in the distant mountains to turn their backs on the world. They celebrate their own sadness as an act of resistance against patriarchy and finance their isolated existence through homemade pornography which they sell online. Excess money is donated to support Kurdish female militias in purchasing weapons. Just when everything seems to be going fine, the arrival of two gonzo reporters threatens to upset the fragile balance of this feminist micro-utopia.

“This porn mockumentary deals with the current state of feminist discourse in a brutally ironic way – which turns out to be surprisingly enjoyable.”
– filmstarts.de

“A funny and debunking matter with its own gaze on panties and the world.”
– critic.de

“Reminds of Bruce LaBruce, but much more funny.”
– Siegessäule Berlin

“It’s triggering, but in an interesting way.”
– one anonymous test viewer

EXTRAS: Watch a Q&A with Candy Flip and Shine Louise Houston, director of the 2020 San Francisco PornFilmFestival. (This video is included with purchase of the film, or a PinkLabel+ subscription.)

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.
