BUTCH PLEASE: An exploration of gay masculinity at the 2019 International Mr. Leather convention.

Interviewees include celebrated gay leathermen, POC, trans leathermen and judges for the International Mr. Leather contest.

ELEVEN WEEKS: Carla Jean Johnson accepts her fast and aggressive cancer diagnosis with clarity and grace while photographer Anna Kuperberg, her long time wife, documents their final days and weeks together. With mesmerizing footage and intimate recordings of the couple’s final conversations, Eleven Weeks is a story more about love than death.

STAND UP, STAND OUT: This is the story of a unique brand of activism belonging only to San Francisco--where three gay teachers’ fight for equal rights during the burgeoning Gay Liberation Movement of the 1970s, led to the blossoming of the Valencia Rose Cabaret, Café, and Restaurant, believed to be the first and only gay-owned and operated comedy club in the USA. At a dark historical moment, it was a locus of resistance through laughter. Stand Up, Stand Out features Tom Ammiano, Karen Ripley, Monica Palcacios, Danny Williams, Dirk Alphin, Paul Boneberg, and the song stylings of Romanovsky & Phillips.

A JOB LIKE ANY OTHER: Pierre is an ordinary 55 years old man, solitary and very shy. He lives in his tidy and quiet apartment surrounded by his favorite figurine collections. However, his job is far from his low profile type. He’s been a Drag Queen Barmaid for the past 30 years, a hard and restrictive work he never really chose. But for him, it’s a job like any other. Pierre passed away suddenly on June 2020. This film now pays tribute to his life and his Drag Queen character Aunt Gaby.

This timely and moving film examines what it means to be an artist, driven by creativity and a desperate need to perform, at a time when live venues across the UK are on the brink.
