Let’s Celebrate DIY Movies at the Cinema Museum!

Hello Friends! Please join me at London’s Cinema Museum on 2 March 2023 for an amazing reunion of filmmakers and festival organizers. Look how far we’ve come! Since the first Wotever DIY Film Festival (my first one was 2013) so many brilliant festivals began, many of them connected somehow to the Wotever DIY Film Festival. My fondest wish is that we can all have some time together, and no one will have to be running a festival, we will all just be hanging out.

Here are the details:

2 March 2023  18:00 – 2200  (plenty of time to socialize!)
Cinema Museum The Master’s House, 2 Dugard Way (off Renfrew Road), London SE11 4TH

 

 

 

Les Mains Gauches Film Festival in Marseille

From Les Mains Gauches Film Festival‘s website:
Videodrome 2 🎥: 49 Cours Julien, 13006 Marseille

My Crazy Boxers is included in a festival preview screening  on the 26th of May at Mémoire des Sexualités, a LGBTQ archive place in Marseille, France, and will shown again at the full festival from the 9th to the 12th of September.

About the festival:
“Les Mains Gauches is a four-days festival of short films and artistic researches about our stories of struggles and identities, exploring our representations and their limits, echoing our joys, our fears, our friendships.

Les Mains Gauches is a gathering to watch movies, to party and to meet.

Labels and categories might be complicated to apprehend and to identify with, but Les Mains Gauches remains a queer, feminist festival.

About us
We are six left hands related by feminism, our queer identities and cinema. Day after day, we try to make films, to program them, to share them. Regarding a dominant homogeneous cinema, we are looking for films that accept their weaknesses, that step aside, that sometimes hesitate in order to understand us better, that are afraid of silence but help us experiencing it.

We are supported by a team of cinema lovers, allies and friends who always help and challenge us to share meaningful programs with the public.”

Another screening, and GenderReel this holiday season

I’m so pleased when my movies is set out on their journies to increase justice and happiness!

Stick around for the Q&A afterwards with some of the directors who, fortunately for us, are in London.

On the neighborhood blog called South Slope News (with Faggotgirl).
On Adapting Spaces, who published a short article i wrote about apartment renovations.
And on Huffington Post, in a very unflattering photo of me walking in protest of gay bashing.
