The accompanied loneliness

The global existential crisis, a product of a wild and violent capitalism based on the maximum exacerbation of ego that destroys social fabric and condemns sapiens to loneliness, has produced biotechnological phenomena such as virtual sex. And the webcam industry is the most expanding in that horizon.

Despite this, morality, as always, which allows massacres and genocides in the name of God, marginalizes and stigmatizes people who professionally practice explicit sex in front of a camera.

The greater the development, the greater the loneliness. This neoliberal-neofeudal system, built against our collaborative nature, where aggressive competition, violence, and limitless ego prevail, has generated an alienated society, self-absorbed, incapable of organically communicating with others.

And it is these individuals, unable to find company naturally, who spend hours and hours in front of a screen, spending fortunes in the global south, with the sole objective of having an interlocutor who saves them from their lonely hell.

That is why this 5th edition of our Erotic and Post-porn Film Bogotá Showcase is dedicated to those who professionally offer their virtual companionship services. One cannot be stigmatized and excluded, who offers solace, companionship, and dialogue, apart from sex, to people that the system has communicationally mutilated.

The film showcase will feature a selection that addresses the issue in all its complexity, far from inquisitorial moralism and absurd prejudices.

On the academic side, we will offer talks and workshops, led by professionals with experience in the field, to share their experiences on how to improve performances on camera, how to build characters, or how to apply basic psychology notions that lead to better presentations and better performance with less effort.

Through this initiative, we want to provide tools to industry individuals so that, far from feeling excluded, they empower themselves and seek autonomy that allows them not to have to sell their labor to exploitative studios but to be the owners of their time, work, mind, and body.

Welcome, web cam companions. We are proud to dedicate this edition of our Showcase to you and, hopefully, contribute to your self-affirmation and emancipation.

Cheers!
