THE GREATEST STORIES NEVER TOLD: QUEER WOMEN FILMMAKERS TALK ABOUT THEIR WORK

Sunday, October 20
12:30pm
Harvard Exit

American features about queer men with a budget of more than a million dollars outnumber comparable features about queer women ten to one. Of those films about women – a significant number of which are made by men – only a fraction get widespread distribution.

Join us for a lively conversation with a select panel of this year’s festival filmmakers as we explore the pitfalls and rewards of lesbian movie-making from start to finish: writing the story, selling the script, getting funding, producing, working with actors, directing, editing, distribution and finally, audience response. We will also examine the impact these films have on both queer and straight communities alike.

Our engaging panel of filmmakers will take questions from the audience and share their own experiences around these complex and intriguing issues.
