Queer Film Fests

Mulligans

Sweet, smart, and funny, Mulligans is more than a poignant family drama; more than a coming out movie.

Straight college jock Tyler brings his best friend Chase to his family s lakeside home for summer vacation. The Davidson family welcomes Chase but as the summer blossoms, unexpected attractions flare. Tyler s Mom Stacey tries to keep it all together while Tyler s Dad Nathan valiantly struggles with his long suppressed sexuality.

Exceptionally well-written and packed with great performances from a strong cast that includes Charlie David (Dante s Cove, A Four Letter Word), Thea Gill (Queer as Folk), Dan Payne (Watchmen), Derek James and newcomer Grace Vukovic.

Praxis

PRAXIS peels away the layers of narrative even as Brian (Tom Macy), the film's axis, struggles to create his true self. Brian, a writer on the verge of a breakdown, is aided by Joe (Andrew Roth) and an elusive woman (Regina Aquino) as he sifts through the fragments of his persona to discover his true core. Fighting against fear and the indifference of society, his quest reflects the classical myths of Proteus and the human search for meaning in the universe.
