Leather Bar.") reacted negatively. <SEP> <P4-S0> I.K.U.( pronounced" ai- kei- ju", abbreviated as" iku") is a 2001 independent film directed by Taiwanese- American experimental filmmaker Shu Lea Cheang. <P4-S1> It was marketed as" a Japanese Sci -Fi Porn Feature". <P4-S2> The film was partially inspired by" Blade Runner"( 1982). <P4-S3> " I.K.U."'s premise involves a futuristic corporation sending shapeshifting cyborgs out into New Tokyo to collect" orgasm data" by means of sexual intercourse. <P4-S4> The title is a pun on the Japanese word which, in sexual slang, is used to express an orgasm. <P4-S5> " I.K.U." premiered at the 2000 Sundance Film Festival. <P4-S6> It was the first pornographic film ever screened in the festival. <P4-S7> Critical reception was poor. <SEP> <P5-S0> Oscar Devereaux Micheaux( January 2, 1884 – March 25, 1951) was an African- American author, film director and independent producer of more than 44 films. <P5-S1> Although the short- lived Lincoln Motion Picture Company was the first movie company owned and controlled by black filmmakers, Micheaux is regarded as the first major African- American feature filmmaker, a prominent producer of race film, and has been described as" the most successful African- American filmmaker of the first half of the 20th century". <P5-S2> He produced both silent films and sound films when the industry changed to incorporate speaking actors.
