CineSlam, Vermont's 5th Annual Gay Film Festival is part of June Pride
Opening Night at Brattleboro's Hooker Dunham, 7pm, June 18th
Next Day Films at Guilford's Organ Barn June 19th (12:30pm to 6pm )
The Gay Film Festival in southern Vermont, CineSlam, will be celebrating its 5th annual screening of glbt shorts from around the globe. Opening Night films will be shown at 7pm in the theater at the Hooker-Dunham (139 Main Street) with a Pride Dance party following at the Brattleboro American Legion Hall. The next day Saturday, June 19th, the whole event moves out to Guilford's Organ Barn for a full afternoon of short films followed by a community barbeque. The grounds open at 12:30pm.
This film festival of shorts which takes place during June Pride celebrates
the 40th anniversary of the first Pride Events in world, when the first gay
march took place in New York City to commemorate the Stonewall Riots.
Those riots in Greenwich Village, New York, are considered the beginnings of the modern day gay civil rights movement. 1970 Christopher Street Liberation Day March started the idea of June Pride events which now occur in hundreds of cities and towns across the world including here in southern Vermont.
CineSlam is programmed by Guilford resident and Emmy-Award winning
filmmaker, John Scagliotti, who created the first glbt television show, In
the Life, on PBS, which is now in its 19th season.
Scagliotti said, "Each year we seem to get more and more quality shorts
applying to our festival. Some of the shorts we are showing are brilliant.
Some are just fun to watch like cartoons and music videos. The diversity of glbt filmmaking is amazing. And CineSlam will be in a celebratory mood this year. The choices we make are for a mixed crowd, be they gay, heterosexual, women or men and everyone is welcome over the age of eighteen."
Since this is the fifth anniversary of CineSlam, the film programs at the
Hooker Dunham Friday and Organ Barn Saturday will emphasize entertainment and fun. Leading off in the area of pure enjoyment will be West Hollywood's Mark Payne's bio short documentary film called "Get Happy." This remarkable film features 12-year-old Mark who would dress up as Judy Garland, Barbara Streisand and others to entertain the neighborhood kids. By the age of 14 he was Bob Hope's opening act in Las Vegas. It includes interviews with several notable people including Heather Mills and features clips from his work including a drag makeover of Regis & Kelly. Mark is now a two-time Emmy-Award winning makeup artist for celebrities like Beyonce, Paris Hilton
and Jane Seymour.
Included in the fun will be Brooklyn's Laura Terruso's short film "Dyke
Dollar" where suburban teenage boys run into Evelyn, the Dyke Dollar.
Terruso says her film pokes fun at "American economic angst and gay panic exploding in suburban New Jersey."
The festival includes some works of local filmmakers too with CineSLAM
presenting the hilarious winner of the Vermont Bear Film Festival's Paw
Award (best Bear short film) called "Wide 'n' Furry." This music video by
local New England filmmakers Rob Sherman and Dan Dowling takes a
bear-centric look at the classic struggle between "Bears" and "Twinks" seen through the lens of Weird Al Yankovic's parody "White and Nerdy," which is itself a takeoff of "Chamillionaire's Ridin'."
This year CineSlam will continue its collaboration with the Connecticut Gay
and Lesbian Film Festival and their director, Shane Engstrom, who will be
presenting some of his favorite shorts which recently screened in Hartford in the Organ Barn on Saturday. Engstrom will also be getting into the humorous side of gay filmmaking with the presentation of Los Angeles's Veronique Cortois animations of "Queer Pets Adventures" which explores butch kitties to accessory-obsessed doggies. This series of delightful animated shorts shines a spotlight on some adorably gay pets and their gay owners." Scagliotti added "while we'll be emphasizing the celebratory aspects of pride, we will still remember that for many gays and lesbians life can be a difficult here in America, especially for immigrants who are gay. That's why we also including "Beyond Boundaries" in our session in the Organ Barn on Saturday. This film takes a look into the lives of immigrants in the United States with diverse sexualities and explores their challenges, triumphs and dreams."
This year many of the CineSlam filmmakers will have the opportunity to win the Chessie Award which will be announced at the BBQ. The winner of the Best Short, named after the Chessie Foundation, which is financially supporting the festival, will receive a cash prize of $750 and an invitation (expenses paid) to present their winning film on Pride of the Ocean Film Festival (sailing out of Boston to Bermuda on May 27, 2011)
