By Any Other Name

I love ForPlay Films and all Inka Winters' erotica, and this is no exception. Her work is not only filmed cinematically and beautifully, it also always centers the humanity and interior lives of the performers, rather than close-ups of their genitalia. So nice to see faces (expressing GENUINE pleasure) in my porn - thank you Inka Winter and DORCEL for celebrating true enjoyment and pleasure of women and all your performers with agency and complexity!

So yes - I, personally, value erotica that treats me and other women and femmes as subjects, not objects. Erotica that actually makes me feel GOOD about myself, my desires, and my body. And I appreciate Inka Winter so much for always doing that in her work, whether she tilts soft-core or ventures lightly into BDSM.

This film is for people who love a slow, emotionally-driven burn, who value inclusion and the diversity of real-life bodies and people's desires. If you're looking for rough, hard-core stuff - you do you! -you'll honestly be better served by looking elsewhere. When a filmmaker says "my kink is connection" you can expect that the emphasis is on hearts and minds, as expressed through bodies.

I also have to respond to the reviewer below me - with all due respect, you absolutely have the right to not find this (or anything else) erotic. You have the right to find people more, or less, attractive. But I submit that perhaps this film is not erotic *for you*, that the (as you described) "plump, matronly" Mandi is not YOUR cup of tea. Dismissing Mandi Slade's wonderful, nuanced, grounded performance just because she doesn't meet your tastes illustrates exactly WHY we need porn like this. Where we all, no matter our bodies or identity, get to experience our own sexualities and desires as VALID. The gorgeous Mandi Slade is the protagonist in her own story - subject, not object - as we all deserve to be, and unfortunately women so rarely are, in porn.

If you like this film, check out more of Inka Winter's work at ForPlay Films dot com, and I know she's done work with Lust Cinema too (there's a gorgeous Bridgerton-inspired series they've got!). And whatever your cup of erotic tea or shot of pornographic whisky is, I hope you find it out there! And hopefully, like Inka Winter's ongoing efforts, your kind of erotica also treats its performers like full humans and makes the world of porn a slightly better place.
