With the voices of sex workers center stage, Erika Lust directs the first part in a series of docu-explicit films.

Basado en Sex Work is Work: Part 1 una confesión de MariaRiot

Maria Riot has never hired an escort before. Dante Dionys has never escorted a woman. And Erika Lust is right there, camera in hand, questions ready, for all of it.

Sex Work is Work episode 1 is exactly what happens when you treat sex workers as the complex, fascinating people they are and give them the space to show you. The chemistry between Maria and Dante is as vivid and electric as anything in the XConfessions series, but what makes this film extraordinary is everything around the sex. The conversations. The honesty. The lives and minds of two people who have chosen this work and have a great deal to say about what that means.

Enlightening, tender, and genuinely thrilling, Erika Lust pushes through yet another wall on her mission for sex positivity and equality in adult cinema.

This is porn that makes you think as hard as it makes you feel.

Wow, what an experience! The first part in a series of films I have made putting the voices of sex workers center stage, Sex Work is Work features Dante and Maria discussing their lives and experiences as sex workers, and their excitement at meeting for the first time. Maria hires Dante as an escort - her first time doing so, and his first time with a woman as an escort. Their excitement and clear sexual chemistry was exactly what I had hoped for. This film is full of the magic of real, thrilling, ecstatic sexual chemistry between two liberated, brave and intelligent people. It was a blast to shoot and I feel uplifted by the sheer positivity of every part of this film whenever I watch it.
