“The phenomenon that is CockyBoys has managed to break out of the porn industry’s boundaries and in recent years, has been recognized not only at various LGBT film festivals, but also at a number of high-profile international festivals,” the Tel Aviv International Film Festival says of CockyBoys and Jaxson. “Those have given quite the formidable platform for Jake Jaxson’s rich and extraordinary film making—the man behind this impressive brand which now has millions of male and female followers, worldwide.”
Jake Jaxson to Be Honored While Screening 3 Gay Films at Tel Aviv Film Festival
Jaxson will be joined by Levi Karter and his mother Anne, Liam Riley, Sean Ford and Carter Dane for the festival, which was recently named a Top 25 Coolest Film Festivals in the World by MovieMaker.com.
On June 12, the festival will present a special Master Class where Jaxson will showcase select scenes from films that have inspired him and shaped his work in mature films, while also revealing secrets from behind the scenes of CockyBoys’ successful franchise. The festival also will screen All Saints: The Bottle Collector, It’s Not the Pornographer Who Is Perverse and Leave It to Levi.
The Tel Aviv appearance follows last month’s successful screening of Leave It to Levi at the 34th Guadalajara International Film Festival in Mexico.
“It’s always an honor to have your work highlighted and screened at a film festival, and I am especially proud to have such a nice cross section of our work featured at the Tel Aviv LGBT festival, especially considering that this is the only LGBTQ film festival in the Middle East,” Jaxson said. “Not many festivals, even gay ones, will consider films that are overly sexual, however this festival, for years, has been on the forefront of making sure that Sex is respected and highlighted as a part of our over all gayness.
“More and more, I have come to realize what harms people, but rather it is the stigmas associated with Sex. What harms people is shame, guilt, and self loathing,” he continued. “All around the world, so many people have been conditioned to be ashamed of their nakedness, and the joy that comes from loving, open, and consensual sexual relationships. Time and again, when we push our sexual selves into the dark, into unspoken places, we then allow others to suppress one of the finest beauties of life, thru their fear, hate, and hypocrisy! And so, I look forward to proudly sharing these three films in hopes of celebrating the very thing that made us—SEX.”
