Honoring the life and memory of David K. Ream, a beloved CIFF trustee, the DReam Maker Shorts program is a collection of LGBTQ+ themed short films made by members of the LGBTQ+ community.

Diving In

We Clap For Airballs is a layered documentary - visually, expressively, and thematically — where the basketball court is a safe space for queer
 and trans BIPOC people to play, feel seen, and valued by one another. With Swish, healing in community happens on the blacktop.
