Film series tend to be quiet affairs on campus, but the new “Love = Love” series has managed to garner some attention for the highly graphic content of one film.

Following the success of the Love = Love T-shirt campaign last semester, DukeOUT-the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual and queer group for graduate and professional students-organized the film series set to the theme of gay relationships. The six-film series sparked interest on campus with the presentation of its first film, John Cameron Mitchell’s “Shortbus,” Feb. 20 in Griffith Theater.
