It's Out of this world and Out in Africa! The Out In Africa SA Gay & Lesbian Film Festival has its 15th birthday outing this September, screening at Nu Metro in Johannesburg and Cape Town for 11 days in each city.
Gay cinema is undergoing a quiet revolution – where stereotypes have been ousted and reality is being truly reflected. The Festival has something to suit all tastes and moods! The films? Silly, serious, sweet and sexy by turns, something for everyone... and from countries all over the world - Argentina, Australia, France, Germany, Hungary, South Africa, Spain, UK and USA.
And the cherries on top are the fabulous filmmaker guests, among them Bennett Singer (Director of Brother Outsider: The Life of Bayard Rustin). Justice Edwin Cameron selected this multiple award-winning documentary which reveals the life of the gay man who mentored Martin Luther King. Cameron will attend some of the screenings and engage with director Bennett Singer and Rustin’s life partner Walter Naegle.
Lisa Thrasher (Producer of Itty Titty Bitty Committee) is an Independent Film Producer and serves as the President of Film Production & Distribution for POWER UP (Professional Organisation of Women in Entertainment Reaching UP) – she will be running a Producer’s Seminar in Johannesburg and Cape Town – see the printed programme and website for further details.
Also in attendance will be Jamie Babbit, the Director of Itty Titty Bitty Committee. Babbit has enjoyed success as a television producer/director, serving as both for the WB television series Popular, as well as directing episodes of such critically acclaimed shows as Ugly Betty, the L Word, Alias, Nip/Tuck, Malcolm in the Middle and The Gilmore Girls.
Johannesburg - Nu Metro at Killarney Mall on Thursday 4th till Sunday 14th September 2008.
Cape Town - Nu Metro at V&A Waterfront on Thursday 11th till Sunday 21st September 2008.
