AGLIFF's PRISM Film Ftival n do that and we ve everyone to jo to tch up wh old iends and meet some new iends the Comg Up om aGLIFF:AFS Queer Cema Lost & Found Seri: Taxi Zum Klo - The AFS Queer Cema: Lost & Found Seri om At Film Society partnership wh aGLIFF ntu on Augt 26 & 30 wh TAXI ZUM KLO, nsired one of the greatt and most ntroversial gay films of the 1980s — hilar, shockg, hot, and thought-provokg, often all at the same time. The At Gay and Lbian Internatnal Film Ftival cultivat the Texas LGBTQI muny by enlighteng, tg, and entertag our clients and patrons through programs that enrich the LGBTQI and ally muni while velopg LGBTQI awarens. The At Gay & Lbian Internatnal Film Ftival (aGLIFF) will take place September 10-13 at the Alamo Drafthoe South Lamar.

Ask Dennis Popl, the founr of San Anton's gay and lbian film ftival, Out at the Movi, to talk about the issu gay and lbian film ftivals face natnwi and right away he says, "homophobia. " Directors and programmers of gay and lbian ftivals New York, Los Angel, and San Francis don't clu homophobia anywhere on their lists. Neher do Stt Dger or Sandra Martez, the artistic and executive directors, rpectively, of the At Gay & Lbian Internatnal Film Ftival (aGLIFF), even though last year, aGLIFF's 10th year, a billboard pany refed to accept an aGLIFF billboard ia whose tagle stated "Baptist Fundamentalists Wele, " and s prter refed to prt what emed were racy photos the aGLIFF program.

In fact, we ma the Christian Coaln newsletter this month and one of the thgs that they said that we did was that the ftival lerature `portrays suggtive homosexual pos, ' and we lgh about and 's funny but 's still very ser. From that perspective, the issu that Dger, Martez, and other gay and lbian ftival programmers do mentn - like fdg and cludg larger proportns of lbian featur, fundg, and reprentg the entire spectm of the muny - seem more luxuri than potential setbacks. And the film is kd of like a semi-gay Silence of the Lambs that there's some really graphic stuff there but 's still a good film.

At Gay and Lbian Ft Announc Schle * austin gay & lesbian international film festival *

This year, Martez beme the first and only paid staff member for what has steadily bee a larger, more prehensive ftival, by far and away the Southwt's most tablished and succsful gay and lbian ftival.

Michael Lumpk, who has been the director of the San Francis Internatnal Lbian & Gay Film Ftival for 15 years, the largt the world wh 75, 000 atten this past June (last year aGLIFF unted 10, 000 atten), says, "There are lbian and gay ftivals New York and L. Chief among those, acrdg to Shannon Kelley, the programmer of Outft: The Los Angel Gay & Lbian Film Ftival, is "the sort of mastreamg of gay culture and of gay films, which is a double-edged sword. It's of urse nice to thk that reprents a pot of arrival that there are gay films major theatre chas, and at the same time there's a theoretil qutn about how gay those films actually are.

" It is nice to see movi like last year's In & Out make money and be treated on a par wh other seasonal fare, yet there's no nyg Kelley's assertn that for gay and lbian filmgoers there's somethg missg the way that Hollywood films treat gay subject matter. Those omissns form the heart of what spurs non-dtry filmgoers to attend gay and lbian film ftivals: to see somethg new and cuttg-edge.

The Sticky Fgers of Time For gay and lbian film ftivals, Kelley believ that the nsequence of the mastreamg of gay culture is that "a lot of distributn pani are havg to s up and take notice of the succs that certa people are havg distributg gay films. At the same time, they don't know exactly what the science of that is and so they may get a film and they have no ia whether 's gog to hurt them or help them to play a gay ftival.

THE AT GAY AND LBIAN INTERNATNAL FILM FTIVAL

AGLIFF - At Gay and Lbian Internatnal Film Ftival. Lookg for abbreviatns of AGLIFF? It is At Gay and Lbian Internatnal Film Ftival. At Gay and Lbian Internatnal Film Ftival listed as AGLIFF * austin gay & lesbian international film festival *

It might even be the gayt film you've ever heard of but they thk, `My gosh, if 's intified wh a gay ftival, I'm gog to margalize my dience and all that crossover that I wish I uld get I'm not gog to get now. '" Bee he owns the Dobie Theatre, Dger is particularly nversant wh the way distributors thk of gay and lbian featur: "The distributor will basilly say [to the filmmakers], do not take any more ftivals.

And so 's the kd of semi-mastreamg of gay and lbian films that's a b of a threat.

They know that there's only so big of a market for the gay or lbian films and they're not makg anythg off of by showg at a ftival, so 's straight cents and dollars. But also chief among the issu facg gay and lbian film ftivals natnwi is the apparent arth of lbian featur, which actually has been a cricism of aGLIFF the past - that didn't feature enough lbian films.
