Role-playing, rough sex and BDSM pair up with conversations on poly-love, partnership and genderqueer identity in
Trans Entities: The Nasty Love of Papi and Wil.
Last month, Queer Black Cinema hosted a screening of
Trans Entities at the LGBT Center in Manhattan. A small audience sipped wine in a room dotted with red candles as QBC hosts introduced their safe sex and HIV/STI prevention campaign and opened the floor to two fiery erotic spoken word performances. After a round of an association game initiated to get audience members in a friendly mood, QBC turned down the lights and the room quieted as
Trans Entities began.
Trans Entities is a daring “docu-porn” that does not hold back. Its two main characters, Papi and Wil, are poly-partners open to exploring everything and anything they desire and can handle. Opening their bedroom door to audiences also means talking openly about all aspects of their relationship. Between fast-cut scenes of Papi, Wil and their third partner having sex, documentary footage reveals them in their daily lives, talking frankly about gender-identity, queerness, homophobia, desire and love. In one scene, the three discuss the experiences of one hearing-impaired partner and open up powerful dialogue on body politics. Lifting the expected barrier between porn characters’ on-screen lives and their personal lives,
Trans Entities gets truly intimate in a fresh way.
In a Q&A after the screening, the film’s two main stars compared
Trans Entities to previous porn films they had acted in. Diverging from a staged porn production, transgender director Morty Diamond filmed the actors in their own home and used a documentary approach to capture a true-to-life portrait of the couple’s sexual relationship. The actors also discussed negotiated BDSM, revealing that some of the most hardcore play caught on film was a new experience for them.
Trans Entities is a unique video that balances hot, provocative play with refreshingly thought-provoking conversation. And in
Trans Entities, discussion never takes the fun out of sex. Papi and Wil take role-playing, pain and erotics to the ultimate level of pleasure. There is nothing light or gentle about their hardcore love.
