Nuit Raunch – Call for films

In 2017, we hosted our first screening of erotic film during Nuit Blanche. We put out a sandwich board on the street, directing people to a studio on the 3rd floor of an old warehouse, and we didn’t realize how big it would become.

Our screening quickly became standing room only, with attendees eager to watch 8 short films from around the world.

AND WE’RE DOING IT AGAIN!
