SHORTBUS w/ Briska – (The YKF Cinema Show)

“Who hasn’t had a threesome that started like this?”

Rope goddess, proud fem daddy, and poly household leader Briska returns to The YKF Cinema Show for a raw, joyful, and explicit deep dive into John Cameron Mitchell’s cult classic SHORTBUS — the 2006 NYC erotic masterpiece packed with unsimulated sex, chaotic orgies, queer healing, and post-9/11 messiness. Briska reveals how this film literally changed her life as a young sexual health advocate, why it still hits different 20 years later, and how it mirrors real kink community vibes — the good, the messy, the patriotic ass-singing, and everything in between. Consent is sexy. Trauma dumping at sex parties. Dominatrix real talk. Poly negotiations. Vibrating eggs gone wrong. We discuss why this unapologetically raw indie film remains a gateway AND provocation for the kink & queer community.

“Short Bus fundamentally changed my life.”

“She’s totally in control of her pain” – Mistress Genevieve

The YKF Cinema Show gets sucked into David Cronenberg’s 1982 body-horror masterpiece Videodrome with professional dominatrix/dark cinema lover Mistress Genevieve and BDSM historian Peter Tupper (A Lover’s Pinch: A Cultural History of Sadomasochism). We explore ideas of the media as a virus, masochistic surrender, erotic transformation, dominant/submissive power games, and the seductive “New Flesh” philosophy—revealing how Cronenberg fuses sex, pain, control, and technology into one of the most transgressive films ever made.

Everything discussed is between consenting adults.

Watch now. Long Live the New Flesh.
