MISSION & OBJECTIVE

Its the erotic curiosity in Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut. Its the playful ice scene that pushes boundaries in 9 1/2 Weeks. Its seduction. Its tease. Its giving into emotion and passion. Erotikos Films will contain the heighten sense of eroticism and the elegance of story-telling.

ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
The inaugural international Erotikos Film Festival will bring feature films, short films, and music videos to be presented and judged to one of the most exotic and erotic adult locations in the world…Hedonism II in Negril, Jamaica.

We are responding to a yearning for more creativity in the area of erotica films and art. The Erotikos Film Festival offers a forum for a creative, intriguing, artistic exploration of “erotic cinema” beyond mainstream pornography.  Independent filmmakers from around the world will weigh in with their entertaining and provocative features, challenging and celebrating sex and sensuality as we may or may not know it.  Erotikos Film Festival will not be seeking films with a single purpose to show sex, graphically and explicitly, with no need for imagination or intelligence. There are other places for these type films. 

Judges will select the best films in special categories. Guests will participate in the Peoples’ Choice Award for Best Picture. Films will be awarded the EFF statue and a cash prize.

This festival is designed to raise the bar of creativity and artistic expression. Raw hard core porn will not be accepted into the festival. Erotica is something that stimulates your mind as well as stirs your body.
