Barcelona Sex Project: Six portraits of true intimacy, personal interviews and real orgasms
Posted at 12:40 PM May 22, 2008
Every Thursday, Naked City expands your pornographic worldview with tales from the far reaches of the earth. Four international pornographers share this space to tell all about the experiences of being porny and making porn outside of the United States. This week it's Erika Lust's turn.
Today I want to introduce you to Barcelona Sex Project, my latest work. It’s an intimate and independent erotic documentary, which explores the real lives of three men and three women as we get to know them extremely personally, including their real orgasms. Through candid interviews they reveal their thoughts and passions, while letting us into their lives by sharing their every day experiences with their own video cameras, and finally inviting us to look in on their most private and intimate pleasure.
The project is based on my conviction that women desire to truly know a person (their beliefs, character, feelings, fears and passions) to become drawn to them on a sexually intimate level.
With this notion, Barcelona Sex Project portrays each man and woman in three situations:
• An in-depth interview about their lives and sexuality.
• A hidden moment from their private lives filmed with their own camera (cooking, skiing, assisting at a rock concert, working…)
• A tasteful and intimate masturbation scene, where the men and the women achieve real orgasms.
This production is accompanied by an artistic photographic project. The photographer has captured the personal and natural style of each of the six protagonists at first in their day-to-day clothes and then completely naked. The photos have been created by JALIF, one of the most prestigious and successful erotic photographers in Barcelona.
The six people in Barcelona Sex Project:
David was born in Galicia and is Galician through and through. He has worked as a crew member on luxury yachts and also deactivated mines when he was a scuba diver for the Spanish navy. He loves the sea, good cooking and his dog, Kron.
Dunia is a bisexual, Brazilian, working mother. She likes to dance, (above all, the samba), and also architecture, traveling and meeting with friends to talk about everything imaginable: wine, love, politics…and sex.
Joni is a young electrician working in Barcelona airport and dedicates his free time to his principle passion in life: snowboarding. He is only 21 but in ten years he expects to be married with children.
Silvia wants to be a rock star. She has just received a drum set for her 21st birthday which she plays with her friends in their band and with whom she wants to conquer the world. Her passions are music, tattoos, the rain and her city: Barcelona.
Joel has been working as a stripper and model for ten years but is studying in his free time to become a broker and financial assessor. He confesses: “Even though I take good care of myself, I go to the gym and eat well; I won’t be able to live on my body and my looks forever.”
Irina is a young woman, quite reserved and a little shy. She is passionate about technology, an avid blogger and professional webmaster. She loves role videogames, the internet and the cinema. We noticed that when it comes to sex Irina has a more daring and exhibitionist side.
More information about the movie is available on its website: Barcelona Sex Project.

This sounds very cool - the photos are great, and remind me of an Annie Leibovitz exhibit of Vegas showgirls, with dual photos, one in costume, one in regular clothes, that made them almost unrecognizable.
