CGiii Comment

There are those that went to film school and those that didn't...

Resourceful and inventive are two words that apply to all these directors.

Some are overtly political, some are inversely personal - all are passionate.

Strangely, a man made this...and, it does give a good insight into the mechanics behind the making of a small independent film.

Good show.

The(ir) Blurb...

From GO FISH to PARIS IS BURNING to THE WATERMELON WOMAN, this festival favorite goes behind the scenes to reveal seven successful lesbian directors. These talented movie-makers enlighten and entertain as they explore their sexual identity, growing up gay, inspirations and techniques, Hollywood vs. Indie, and of course, love and sex, onscreen and off. The conversations are intimate, the topics unlimited, and the clips from their work enthralling!
