SQIFF18 Luke & Jack present: Bishop Black Retrospective

We are excited to bring Berlin-based actor and performer Bishop Black to SQIFF to present a retrospective of his amazing and varied work. Bishop has worked with some of the most prodigious and provocative directors in queer porn including Shu Lea Cheang, Erika Lust, Morgana Muses, and Bruce LaBruce. He has handpicked for us a selection of films central to the development of his career and approach, exploring his transition from gay male to queer porn and his identity as a black queer performer amongst other themes. Join us for a stimulating and seductive evening of x-rated shorts followed by Bishop in conversation about his art with Drew Bigglestone and Ian Diamond of Luke & Jack.

In partnership with Luke & Jack, Scotland’s premiere sex boutique.
