Standing at a podium in front of the mighty Wurlitzer at the landmark Castro Theatre, K.C. Price, Frameline’s new Executive Director, and Festival Director Jennifer Morris announced the schedule for this month’s 33rd annual international LGBT film festival. Over 200 features and shorts are on the docket, sourcing from 32 countries, five continents and our own Bay Area backyard.

Queer cultural questions are featured groupings of Asian, Black/African and Latino programming; transgender topics arise in 37 titles; and music will move you in 18 “films that rock.”
