You know what the best thing about an LGBT Film Festival is? That once a year we get flooded with LGBT films from all over the world. One glorious week of films that we would otherwise never see. Then… 258 days go by and there is nothing playing at your local theater. Well, last year […]
I love women. I find them to be incredibly nuanced, smart, funny, charming and altogether fascinating. I love the way they see the world, the ways they aspire to improve the world and the ways they tirelessly continue the uphill battle for equality in the world. Women can and will make the changes we all […]

Okay, ladies. Be honest. You go to see an independent lesbian film because the only thing that matters is the story. Right? Okay, I’ll confess story actually does matter. But, what do we talk about? The Sex Scenes. Was it hot or not? The question should be focused on whether it felt real. Honestly, just […]
One of my favorite sequences in Elena Undone is when Elena realizes she’s going to leave her husband. No words. Just the brilliant words and music from Jen Foster‘s Broken. I LOVE that song. It fit so incredibly well in the film that I knew I was going to work with Jen sometime in the […]
