How they compare

Both put chemistry, story and women's pleasure first.

Erika Lust, from Barcelona, covers XConfessions (short films adapted from viewers' real confessions) and Lust Cinema (700+ films and series, including partner studios). Films are directed by women and queer artists, with consent at the centre and performers treated as collaborators. It costs more than mainstream studios.
