3 Good Things
|
A tortoise. A goody-two-shoes shrink. And a guy who’s such a failure can’t even succeed at suicide. A short, twisted road trip to the place where good intentions go bad. Very bad. |

Bandages, Socks and Facial Hair
| Learning the swagger, the chew and the talk, a group of Hungarian lesbians spend an amusing and surprisingly fascinating afternoon getting down pat the details of being a man with the help of German instructors, a bandage, socks and a bit of liberally applied macho-styled facial hair. With tongue firmly lodged in the fake stubbled cheek this endearing short dissects gender roll-play in the spirit of revolution. Check out the photo gallery for Bandages, Socks and Facial Hair. |

Beyond Hate Crimes
| In South Africa hate crimes are escalating in the South African townships where violent homophobic acts against LGBTI people are causing individuals to remain in the closet out of fear. In a country with supposedly the world’s most advanced constitution that protects the rights of each individual, several organisations and a lot of brave and angry women get together to ensure that Sizakele, Salome, Lorna, Gugu, Zoliswa, Fannyann, Thokozane, Eudy and others do not become just another crime statistic. | Director: | Musa Ngubane | |

Faced with her past and present lives over the dinner table, Puleng must reconcile her two worlds. Check out the photo gallery for BFF. |

Farm
| A beautifully shot local student film. When Jan’s mother dies in a tractor accident, he places his university aspirations and his relationship with Jacques on hold to look after the farm and his father.

Snakes
|
From South Africa’s irrepressible spinner of the gay farce is another sparkling gem. Robert Whitehead is charismatic Sheila, tele-evangelist with a difference – her brand of face cream sets you, as a Friend of Jesus, on the path to beauty in His image. Her wife, Shirley, pockets the takings and keeps Sheila titillated with her own brand of loving. When disowned son Sebastian turns up to demand some dosh (in order to become Tara), Sheila’s dysfunctional past and present collide. Check out the photo gallery for Snakes. |
