In this exclusive interview, pioneering independent porn director Erika Lust—dubbed “the queen of ethical porn”—joins me to unpack the relationship between desire, culture, and power. A feminist trailblazer, Lust has redefined adult filmmaking with authentic, female-centered stories that challenge industry norms. Her work has earned her TEDx stages and a profile in The New York Times, which crowned her an “art-house pornography behemoth” shaping the future of adult entertainment.
This episode was recorded in person at Lust’s Barcelona HQ. Watch the video version on the Pleasure-Seeking website. To learn more about Erika Lust, check out her website and her immersive erotic art exhibition House of Lust.
