LETTER FROM
CHUCK WHEELER Chair: Men’s Programming HELLO AGAIN FRIENDS OF NCGLFF! t is that time of year again to bring a touch of Oz into our lives and to gather together as a community to celebrate our Pride through the magic of film. Appropriately, this year NCGLFF’s first film on August 10 will be Behind the Curtain: Todrick Hall, the inspirational documentary about the young artist and his ambitious retelling of the classic Dorothy and Toto story blended with contemporary social issues and more. My love of film stretches back to my youth, escaping from my life every weekend at the matinees. And yes, I worshipped Judy Garland and The Wizard of Oz. I remember the year my grandparents purchased their first color TV, and my sister and I sat there in absolute awe as the B&W opening in Kansas transitioned to glorious color when Dorothy opened that door to Oz. I came to NCGLFF shortly after my graduate study Master of Arts Program in Liberal Studies (MALS) at Duke University. I didn’t complete MALS, but while attending my emphasis was directed toward Queer Film Studies. I have been with NCGLFF as a volunteer for 21 years, and for 20 of those years, I have worked with Programming. Every few years during the planning process for NCGLFF, there has been a volunteer who would speak up to state that they believed that there was no longer a necessity for the festival, that is, we had achieved rights commensurate with our heterosexual counterparts. Though I would listen politely to the argument, I was cringing inside at the suggestion that the battle for equal rights is finite.

On June 12, 2016, 49 members of our community were tragically murdered in a brutal hate crime at the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, Florida. But even beyond the Pulse massacre, the National Coalition of Anti-Violence Programs (NCAVP) reported a 17% rise in gay-related hate killings in 2016. 2016 was the worst year on record for hate killings (Numbers from USA Today). In 2017, there have been 100+ anti-LGBT bills introduced in over half the states in the USA, including bills allowing religious exemptions in child welfare and in public schools. On June 30, 2017, the last day of Pride Month, the Texas Supreme Court tossed out a lower court ruling that stated spouses of gay and lesbian public employees are entitled to subsidized same-sex marriage benefits. Despite education and PrEP for HIV prevention, according to statistics published by the CDC in February of this year, there have been increases in infections among 25- to 34-year-old gay and bisexual males and among Latino gay and bisexual men. There is also the current political climate, a heated topic for discourse today that usually ends up somewhere south of uncivil. The divide among families, friends, and communities since the recent election is only growing worse. NCGLFF will not save the world, but this festival is here to inform and to proclaim that our artists remain resolute in their creative dedication to moving our cause(s) forward, not backward to a 1950s fantasy that never really existed anyway. Never underestimate the power of art to effect change. This festival returns
every year to remind us where we have been, where we are, and where we must go. And most importantly, to remind of us of what we risk losing if we fail to stand together. From August 10 through 13, 2017 please join me over the rainbow at NCGLFF. Enjoy all the films we are proudly bringing to you as part of our celebration of Pride. It is not all singing and dancing, but it is there. Be entertained. Have fun. But between films, please take a moment to look around you and see all the people with whom you are enjoying this comfort of community. Perhaps even ask a stranger why they are here. What would be my reply? I am here because I belong. I come back every year because this is where I want us to be, in a world where the clouds are far behind us, if only for four days. You can be Dorothy, the Tinman, the Scarecrow, the Cowardly Lion, Glenda the Good Witch, or even Toto. And when I do see you back in Kansas or North Carolina, I can say that you and I were really there for a few fabulous days in August. Furthermore, because we were there and because we do remember, let’s work to bring an everyday version of Oz back to our homes this side of the rainbow. In other words, get involved. I really don’t know if we’ll ever be without our enemies or detractors, yet one can hope. Meanwhile, most assuredly, we’ll still have a festival every year both to inform and to entertain. Mixing a little Oz with Judy Garland’s films with Mickey Rooney, we will always love putting on a show for you. Welcome to NCGLFF 2017 Everyone!

AFTER LOUIE (US, 101 MIN)
After Louie explores the contradictions of modern gay life and history through Sam, a man desperate to understand how he and his community got to where they are today. As an AIDS activist and member of ACT UP in the 1980s and 90s, Sam witnessed the deaths of too many friends and lovers. Battle-wounded and struggling with survivor’s guilt, Sam now resents the complacency of his former comrades and derides what he sees as the younger generation’s indifference to the politics of sex, and of death. An unexpected intimacy with a much younger man challenges his understanding of contemporary gay life. Through this unconventional romance, he is forced to deal with the trauma that so informs his past, their present, and an unknown future. AUGUST 13 AUGUST 16

Her love is impossible from the beginning, but she still decides to show her feelings. Canada: In I Like Girls, four women reveal the nitty-gritty about their first loves, sharing funny and intimate tales of one-sided infatuation, mutual attraction, erotic moments, and fumbling attempts at sexual expression. Violet and June is a film about falling in love, the terror of being alive in a cold heartless universe, and butts. Mexico: Julia is about to go on stage, but choreography is the least of her troubles in Julia’s Piece. Ireland: Lily is a girl with a secret, on the cusp of becoming a young woman. In Little Doll, pre-teens Elenore and Alex have an instant connection.

APRICOT GROVES (ARMENIA, 80 MIN)
In light of cultural and familial obligations, to what lengths will someone go for the person they love? The characters in Apricot Groves wrestle with their identities against a backdrop of religious and societal oppression. Aram, an Iranian-Armenian youth who immigrated to the US as a young child, returns to Armenia for the first time to ask for the hand in marriage of an Armenian girlfriend Aram met in the US. Together, Aram and his older brother, Vartan, must shoulder all the details for the traditional ritual themselves, because they have no surviving male relatives. Aram discovers many cultural, religious, and national differences on the one-day trip, but harder obstacles lie ahead. Yet, there are more stops and rituals for the two brothers as they hit the road towards the Iranian border, and the film skillfully layers subtle hints among their words, looks, and deeds. With a striking, openhearted perspective, Apricot Groves proves that, when it comes to love, there are no borders. A beautiful story of identity, family, faith, brotherhood, and love, this debut feature was written and directed by Tehran-based Pouria Heidary Oureh. In Armenian and Persian with English subtitles AUGUST 12 AUGUST 16

THE DEATH AND LIFE OF MARSHA P. JOHNSON (US, 105 MIN)
Marsha P. Johnson was a pioneering LGBT+ rights campaigner in New York City from the 1960s onwards. She was a key figure in the 1969 Stonewall riots, and was known for her kindness and charitable nature as much as she was known for her striking drag looks. Along with her friend Sylvia Rivera, Johnson formed Street Transvestites Action Revolutionaries (S.T.A.R.), later becoming an AIDS activist who was fundamental in the early years of ACT UP. Marsha died in 1992 at the age of 46. Her body was found floating in New York’s Hudson River. While Marsha’s death was ruled a suicide, her friends have been trying to re-open the case to discover the truth behind Marsha’s death. The film follows Victoria Cruz, a victim’s rights advocate as she campaigns to have Marsha’s case examined more closely. AUGUST 11 AUGUST 12

DICKINSON AVENUE:
THE (MOSTLY) TRUE STORY OF THE PADDOCK CLUB (US, 90 MIN)
The Paddock Club was the first place in eastern NC where LGBT people could be themselves. Whether it was hosting a small gathering of friends, or a Broadway-sized drag pageant; for 30 years it was home to a lot of people, and they always thought it would be there. Opened in 1973, it survived the brutal homophobia of the south, the AIDS crisis, the gay-coming-of-age that was the 90s, and when it finally closed in December of 2003, it was one of the longest-running, continually-operating LGBT businesses in America. Through pictures, home movies, and stories told by the people who lived them, Dickinson Avenue pieces together 40 years of LGBT history in Eastern NC, as well as takes its audience behind the scenes of the longest-running comedy drag pageant in the country, The Miss Dickinson Avenue Pageant (which originated at The Paddock in 1983). The patrons and staff of The Paddock wove the tapestry that made up the story of The Paddock. This is their story. AUGUST 13 AUGUST 17

THE FABULOUS ALLAN CARR (US, 90 MIN)
With a career spanning three decades, Allan Carr was a one-of-a-kind Hollywood power player. An ambitious and innovative producer, manager, party planner, and marketer, Carr built his grandiose reputation with a calculated flair for the hustle that earned him a fortune from the 1978 mega-hit musical Grease and the 1983 Broadway smash La Cage aux Folles. Born in 1937, Carr was seduced by Hollywood and dreamed of reaching its upper echelon. He helped launch the careers of Olivia Newton-John and Michelle Pfeiffer. Carr’s most spectacular film debacle was the 1980 homoerotic disco camp-fest Can’t Stop the Music, starring Caitlyn Jenner, Valerie Perrine, and the Village People. Director Jeffrey Schwarz (I Am Divine, Tab Hunter Confidential) is the perfect choice to immortalize Carr’s flamboyant, fairytale life. He’s gathered warm and witty remembrances from many of Carr’s friends and colleagues, including Bruce Vilanch, Lorna Luft, Marlo Thomas, and Steve Guttenberg. AUGUST 11 AUGUST 12 AUGUST 17

After being emasculated at a sales conference, Reese and Peyton decide the only way to regain their confidence and prove their masculinity is to sleep with some women. When they meet Beth and Dominique, it seems like a perfect match. Unfortunately, sealing the deal is easier said than done in Men Don’t Whisper. It’s only a first date, but Greg is in over his head. Usually a reserved guy, he struggles to keep up with young, unpredictable Josh in Call Your Father. In The Yoga Bridge, two friends—one white, one First Nations—fight over Vancouver’s failed attempt to close a major bridge for citizens to do yoga on National Aboriginal Day. Billy and Shelley are best friends, but their friendship is greatly tested when Shelley’s boyfriend secretly comes out to Billy in What About Shelley? 5A-5B concerns two Harlem neighbors, a young gay academic and a free-spirited divorcee, who combat urban ennui with the help of some fine wine from the bodega. When Ty accidentally steals the spotlight at his sister’s wedding, tensions arise between him and his family in American Pride. A gay man is forced to give up the last remaining vestige of yet another failed relationship: his ex’s jacket. But during the post-breakup stuff exchange, belongings are not the only things that get swapped in Exchange. A hesitant guy walks into a bar and has an unforgettable experience in Josie Grossy.
