Erika Lust is a name synonymous with disruption in the adult industry. As the founder of Lust Cinema and the groundbreaking XConfessions series, she has spent over a decade pushing the boundaries of erotic filmmaking by prioritizing female pleasure, consent, and storytelling. Her work is not just entertainment—it’s a movement.
Born in Sweden and based in Barcelona, Lust’s journey began with her short film The Good Girl in 2004, which went viral and caught the attention of audiences craving a different kind of adult content. Since then, she’s become a leader in feminist porn, building a brand that attracts cinephiles, academics, and pleasure-seekers alike.
Lust’s entrepreneurial approach focuses on transparency, inclusivity, and ethics. Her productions are known for paying performers fairly, involving them in creative decisions, and fostering safe working environments. In an industry often criticized for exploitation, her model is proof that values and profitability can coexist. 
Beyond filmmaking, Lust has launched educational platforms, spoken at TEDx, and built a global community around the idea that adult content can be both arousing and empowering. Her success is a testament to how entrepreneurs in the adult space can lead with integrity while reshaping cultural norms.
