VALENCIA, Spain — Director Alex the Monkey and his production company, Benefit Monkey, have won the Special Jury Prize at Venus International Erotic Film Festival for their short, “Carmilla.”
Inspired by Sheridan Le Fanu’s vampire story, the short stars Amy Douxxx and Melody Marks.
"Receiving an award from a prominent festival like Venus is an incredible honor," said Monkey. "The fact that a work rooted in the pornographic tradition has been celebrated in a broader cinematic context is a testament to the growing recognition and appreciation of adult content as a legitimate form of artistic expression. This is a rare and significant moment for the industry."
