Puzzy Power (also known as HotMale) is a Danish film company started in 1997 as a subsidiary to Lars von Trier's company Zentropa, with the goal of producing hardcore pornographic films for women.[1] It is the only time ever a mainstream film company has openly produced hardcore pornographic films.

The initiative was taken by producer Lene Børglum,[2] who as leader of Puzzy Power gathered a group of women (sexologist Gerd Winther, editor Lili Henriksen, porn model and journalist Christina Lohse, line-producer Vibeke Windeløv and production assistant Mette Nelund) and developed a so-called "Statement on women and sensuality", later called The Puzzy Power Manifesto.[3] The manifesto was shaped as a guide for the production of erotic films for women.[4]
