LAS VEGAS — Grooby’s “Real Fucking Doc” received the Diamond Award at the Adult Film Festival Las Vegas this past weekend.
Directed by Lilith Luxe, the title is an exclusive companion documentary to the 2017 XBIZ Trans Release of the Year “Real Fucking Girls” directed by Mona Wales.
“I am beyond thrilled with the win.” Luxe said. “It gives me such joy that this film is out in the world being seen by so many people. Especially as there is more and more discussion about porn in the mainstream media, it's only by sharing and celebrating sex-worker-produced pieces like ‘Real Fucking Doc’ that we can control the narrative. My only hope with this piece was to provide a platform for everyone involved with ‘Real Fucking Girls’ to say what they wanted to say exactly how they wanted to say it, because the world needs to hear it.”
“Real Fucking Doc” follows the cast and crew during the filming of “Real Fucking Girls” at the Armory in San Francisco back in February 2016. Documentarian Luxe weaves together behind-the-scenes content, interviews with the cast and crew and scenes from “Real Fucking Girls” to create an extended version of the documentary, which was then submitted to film festivals.
“I have so much love and respect for what both Lilith and Mona created with these pieces,” added Kristel Penn, Grooby’s marketing and editorial director. “I’ve been showing an excerpt of ‘Real Fucking Doc’ for the educational workshops I’ve been running, and attendees often share with me how it helped demystify the industry for them. Like most media, consumers generally only see the finished product. I appreciate how Lilith gave a platform to the cast and crew of ‘Real Fucking Girls’ to give depth and dimension to their creative choices and show how much agency they had in the process.”
