"Hi, I'm Astrid Glitter. I'd like to welcome you to GLITTER FILMS. We all know boys like porn, but guess what - 'girls like it too'.

Reviving the ‘blue movie’ for today’s market is my vision for GLITTER FILMS.

GLITTER FILMS is not a 'how many cum on the face shots can you get in 2 hours' adult film house. I believe there can be art, creativity and quality in adult films - as well as lust and lots of sex."

GLITTER FILMS was founded by Astrid in September 2005. Basing the company in Auckland, New Zealand - Astrid became New Zealand's first female porn producer.

Astrid Glitter - a sensible, intelligent, female voice for the adult industry.

Astrid was born and raised in Auckland and has travelled extensively throughout New Zealand and the world - she really didn't leave home till she had seen the country. She has a strong social conscious and continues this through GLITTER FILMS, pledging donations from DVD sales to related charities. Not to mention that all GLITTER FILMS productions are advocates for safe sex.

Along with Astrid's social conscious is also a love and pride for her homeland, New Zealand. Making JOHN 100% kiwi made was another priority for the production. GLITTER FILMS always tries to source product and service for New Zealand productions from New Zealand first.

"With JOHN I never even questioned could I get all the talent in New Zealand - of course I could. I think some people just give up too soon, because it hasn't been done before they think it can't - I believe everything is possible - if you can dream it you can do it. My mother always told me there is no such word as can't."

What makes GLITTER FILMS different from other adult production houses, isn't just that the productions have a story or great music or that they are produced by a woman - those are just part of the overall GLITTER FILMS vision for its productions. It is about making films that respect the audience and the material which they are portraying. Films that respect the participants and maintain creative integrity. In Astrid's own words:

"I am not really out specifically to push boundaries or make new ones, those all come when you are being true to your own self. I am not out to be controversial or push anything in anyones face, I just think that there is an opportunity for adult films to be so much more than they are, they are so much a part of a lot of peoples lives and it is time that there were some productions out there that were equally good for you mind as well as other parts.

The influence that the adult world has on peoples sexual confidence and habits is really underrated, as adult producers we have a responsibility to do our part for the community. In our first film, JOHN, for example - I asked for no swearing. You won't find excessive swearing or violence in our films. Even any "oh my god"'s were removed from the script.

Sex is out there, porn is out there - it won't go away - so how about just making ethical porn, advocating safe sexual expression that interests your mind and your loins."

GLITTER FILMS is not backed by any major off-shore production house nor any film grant or other sponsorship. Astrid self finances all her productions.

GLITTER FILMS produce all genres of adult film including Guy Love, Girl Love and Hetero themes.
