The Barcelona International Erotic Film Festival, or FICEB (Festival Internacional de Cinema Eròtic de Barcelona in Catalan) is an annual Spanish pornographic film festival and awards ceremony.

The event dates from 1992.^[1] Since 1997 it has been held in the La Farga convention center in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, a town outside Barcelona.^[2] In 2005, the event was recognized by the regional government of Catalonia,^[1] but in 2006, the L'Hospitalet municipal government controversially voted not to renew the festival's contract, requiring it to seek a new location (Madrid) for 2008.^[2]

Compared to the analogous Hot D'Or film festival in Cannes, the Barcelona festival has been called less exclusive and more comprehensive. Besides film awards and star appearances, the five days of FICEB include hundreds of strip-tease and live sex shows, as well as a lingerie show and a sex product fair.^[3][4] About 50,000 people attended the festival in 2005 and 2006.^[1][5]

FICEB awards

The FICEB has three awards for different categories of pornographic films, the Ninfa (Nymph) for heterosexual pornography, the HeatGay for gay pornography films and the Tacón de Aguja (High heel or Stiletto heel) for BDSM and sexual fetish films.^[6]

The following is a list of the winners in the major categories for the Ninfa awards. A more complete list of winners can be found through the External Link listed below.
