HUMP! (film festival)

HUMP! (film festival)

The HUMP! annual film festival in Seattle, USA showcases home-movie erotica, amateur sex cinema, and locally produced pornography. Films are rated by the audience, and awards are given. The films are then destroyed before the live audience at the final showing of the festival, by the master of ceremonies, Dan Savage. However, the recognition has become so significant that several films which had premiered at HUMP! have been re-released and achieved significant commercial success. Most notably among them, the gay feature "Lawnboy," and Gloria Brame's short mockumentary, "How To Get A Leg Up In Porn."
