Pride 2024
It’s that pride-thang time of year again, and as good a time as any to bask in our spectacularly wide-ranging collection of LGBTQ+ films for Pride 2024. From classic docs and risqué dramas, to off-kilter experimental films, we offer Shirley Clarke's mesmerizing and controversial Portrait of Jason, Derek Jarman's transcendent Blue, Wayne Koestenbaum's poetic rhapsodies, Bertrand Mandico's lesbian 'El Topo in Space!' oddity After Blue, John Cameron Mitchell's erotic romp Shortbus, profoundly moving portraits of HIV-positive Black gay men in Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien by Marlon Riggs, and a drug and sex fueled drama by Ira Sachs, Keep the Lights On. We have several documentaries on Stonewall (Before and After!), plus bio-docs on poet Allen Ginsberg, queer activist Pedro Lemebel, and ACT-UP activist Vito Russo. Other highlights include Sundance Grand Jury Prize winner Silverlake Life, based on Tom Joslin’s video diaries during the AIDS crisis; and Gabriel Baur’s iconic gender odyssey Venus Boyz, situated in Club Casanova, home of the legendary Drag King Night in New York City.
