I am very proud of what we made out of their experience."Īccepting the award, she thanked the crew, the stars Sadie Lune and Parker Marx, and addressed the audience of sexologists: “For those of you perplexed as to why a porn film is winning a sexology award, I understand.”īell then contextualized porn within the importance of lifelong sex education. I’m so happy that it worked: They really listened to one another, they did things together sexually that I have honestly never seen before, and the trust between them created more emotion than I could have anticipated. Adorn would start with both performers naked, and have one rule: ‘You are only allowed to touch the other person over or under clothing that you put on them.’ So the actors couldn’t rely on the ‘typical’ order of sex acts, because it wasn’t allowed! They would need to get creative.
"My idea was to do this with the constraints of an unusual erotic game. “With Adorn, I wanted to make a film that captures something I think is very important about sex: The emotional presence of two people trying to discover together what will make them mutually happy," Bell explained. The key elements that most of this year’s submissions hoped to convey are right here in the winning film: The importance of touch, and that sex is so much more than just arousing the genitals.” Later they also stated, amusingly, “ Adorn was, above all, not only the best submission, but also the hottest.”Īdorn chronicles a 100% improvised “erotic game” designed by Bell.
The jury stated onstage at the awards ceremony, “We felt Adorn was innovative, interesting, and informative, with just the right dose of realistic messages about sex. Adorn is now the first porn film in history to win this prize. Every year, the NVVS (Nederlandse Wetenschappelijke Vereniging voor Seksuologie) awards its Sex & Media Prize to a media item (article, book, documentary) that the NVVS feels has had the most positive effect on public attitudes about sexuality-and on Friday, November 29, 2019, it awarded that prize to Jennifer Lyon Bell’s sexually explicit film Adorn.
