The Film-Makers' Cooperative is thrilled to be a community partner for NEWFEST: The New York LGBTQ+ Film Festival, for the second year in a row! Since our founding in 1961, the Coop has been committed to amplifying the work of filmmakers on the margins, especially artists within the LGBTQIA+ community.
On October 15th at 7:30pm at BAM Rose Cinemas, we're honored to co-present the program SHORTS: AVANT QUEER, which will also be available to stream from October 9th to October 21st. These bold films offer inventive visions that expand the possibilities of cinema while illuminating the spectrum of queer experience. Through experimental narratives, striking aesthetics, and complex queer characters, each work pushes the medium forward with daring originality. Themes of family, connection, and transformation are woven throughout, showing how emotion and innovation can converge to re-imagine both storytelling and queer life.
