Out On Film has announced its first selections for the upcoming LGBTQ+ film festival set for Sept. 25 to Oct. 5.
Here is more about the announced films.
Exit Interviews
Directed by Garrett Abdo
Robert, a middle-aged gay man, begins a personal documentary project following his long history of failed relationships. As a professional but emotionally vulnerable individual, Robert decides to interview six of his ex-boyfriends, each of whom represents a distinct chapter in his love life. His ultimate goal is to find out why these relationships ended and to use the documentary as a means of personal growth—or so he believes.
Lesbian Space Princess
Directed by Emma Hough Hobbs & Leela Varghese
In Emma Hough Hobbs and Leela Varghese’s crowd-pleasing, Teddy Award-winning animated feature, a space princess is thrust out of her sheltered life and into a galactic quest to save her bounty hunter ex-girlfriend from the Straight White Maliens.
Assembly
Directed by Rashaad Newsome and Johnny Symons
“Assembly” follows visionary artist Rashaad Newsome as he transforms a historic military facility into a Black queer utopia, blending art, AI, and performance. Through stunning visuals and deeply personal performances, “Assembly” captures the transformative power of creativity as a fractured community comes together to find strength, solidarity, and liberation.
The Librarians
Directed by Kim A. Snyder
As an unprecedented wave of book banning largely addressing race and LGBTQ+ issues is sparked in Texas, Florida, and beyond, librarians under siege join forces as unlikely defenders fighting for intellectual freedom on the front lines of democracy.
Tickets are available at outonfilm.org.
