Israelis, two guys and a girl, share an apartment in Tel Aviv`s hippest
neighborhood: headstrong Lulu, who works in a bath products boutique;
flamboyant Yali, who manages a trendy café; and brooding

store clerk Noam, who spends his weekends serving at checkpoints in the
National Guard. When Noam meets and falls in love with a Palestinian
man named Ashraf, he and his friends conspire to help Ashraf stay on in
Tel Aviv illegally. They participate in a beach rally, celebrating a

Palestinian territories. But ultimately, their carefully constructed
utopia is shattered by the political and social realities of the Middle
East, and the constant outbursts of violence. In Hebrew and Arabic with

tale of youth’s ephemeral curse is beautiful to look at
–
and that’s not just because of Dorian Gray (David Gallagher).
Dorian is an independently wealthy young man who hangs out with the
movers and shakers of Manhattan's art scene. He's madly in love with
the struggling actress Sibyl, yet gives into the attentions of lovelorn
artist Basil. The result is Basil's magnetic video installation piece
that captures Dorian's ageing soul, helped by the Mephistophelean
Gabriel. Over the next 17 years, Dorian is shepherded through his
decadent life by his friend and patron Henry. But there's a terrible
price to pay for eternal youth.

In 1952 an
Army sergeant was cornered and courted by his commanding
officer. Their romance grew and then grew too obvious. Rumors became
anonymous tips to headquarters. They avoided court-martial by
confronting the troops in their unit. That pivotal moment cemented Bob
and Jack together for the rest of their lives. Fifty-two years later
they share how they've remained a couple: how they left wives and
children, moved to a small town in the Pacific Northwest and started a
radio station, and today how they battle it out in their eighties. Bob
& Jack's 52-Year Adventure is the true self-told story about
the
kind of lifelong love we all hope for and the equal rights two men who
are still in love will now need to survive.

North Carolina Premiere!

In
2001 the law in the UK for gay porn changed forever. Up until then,
the only porn gay men in the UK could enjoy would be illegal, bad
quality material mainly from Europe and America. Even up until 2003,
certain sexual acts were still illegal in gay porn, while their
straight counterpart movies enjoyed greater freedom in sexual
expression. Now that has all changed; films can be produced and sold
freely in the UK; and a new industry is starting to emerge. The Seven
Secrets to Perfect Porn follows the work of Max Lincoln, who took the
opportunity to start his own movie company, Eurocreme, in the UK to
make porn to challenge the American and European dominance of hardcore
films.
