UNCENSORED 2026
UNCENSORED was founded in London in 2019 as an interdisciplinary festival exploring the intersections of pornography, art and activism.The festival is at its 5th edition and has brought together filmmakers, artists, performers, sex workers, researchers, activists, and audiences from across the UK and beyond to celebrate freedom of expression while challenging dominant narratives around sex, pleasure, and representation.
Returning for its fifth edition, UNCENSORED presents an expanded programme at Stück and partner venues across London, alongside online screenings on PinkLabel.TV.
Across three days in London, audiences can experience three film screenings, workshops, panel discussions, performances, installations, and conversations with artists working at the forefront of sex-positive culture and contemporary cinema.
Highlights include three participatory workshops: one led by photographer Adrián Coto, exploring photography as a tool for self-knowledge and uncensored collective storytelling; a second 6-hour immersive session created by Normies Study Group, culminating in a live performance and body installation on the festival's closing night; a third one, led by Sweatmother, founder of The Otherness Archive, explores the erotic through a t-masc gaze.
The festival also presents two panel discussions/Q&A:
The Politics of Pleasure on Screen 01 & 02 bring together filmmakers from the International Open Call 2026 to discuss bodies, desire, representation, and the evolving languages of contemporary erotic cinema and pornography.
Online Screenings on PinkLabel.TV: 19th November - 3rd December 2026
