YBCA presents CineKink: Silken Sleeves July 10, 2008

SILKEN SLEEVES
BY MARIA BEATTY
Beatty has created an evocative journey through four seasons of domination and submission, one in which fetish icon Midori—by turns playful and cruel—captures and binds the delicate Mayan, whose struggles avail her nothing in the presence of such rope-wielding expertise (Winner -Audience Choice Award for Best Experimental Feature/CineKink 2008). Plays with the short, A Dog’s Tale, a black-and-white reverie on control and submission, longing and desire.

CineKink is an NY-based organization that encourages the positive depiction of alternative sexuality through its annual film festival. With offerings drawn from Hollywood and beyond, works presented at the festival range from documentary, drama, camp, comedy, hot porn and everything in between.
