- DirectorAnita SinghStarsVinay ChandranDeepu Sebastian EdmondElenOn July 2, 2009, Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, a colonial law, which criminalizes the LGBT community on the basis of their sexual preferences, was decriminalized by the Delhi High Court in India after a long legal battle which was started back in 2001 by Naz Foundation. This judgment was overturned by the Supreme Court on December 11, 2013 owing to various socio-religious groups appealing against the High Court Judgement. Numerous people who had come out during this period were left in lurch and scared at the prospect of being treated as criminals in their own country now. Before the conservative Indian society could bring itself to accepting and respecting an individual's sexual choice, the Supreme Court shut the door on the community. This documentary is an attempt at understanding how the High Court and Supreme Court judgments have affected the community and what transpired in the lives of these people over years. It analyses the judgments from both the Courts and tries to understand if they were constitutionally valid or sheer travesty of justice.
- DirectorRachel MasonStarsKaren MasonBarry MasonMicah MasonIn 1976, Karen and Barry Mason had fallen on hard times and were looking for a way to support their young family when they answered an ad in the Los Angeles Times. Larry Flynt was seeking distributors for Hustler Magazine. What was expected to be a brief sideline led to their becoming fully immersed in the LGBT community as they took over a local store, Circus of Books. A decade later, they had become the biggest distributors of gay porn in the US. The film focuses on the double life they led, trying to maintain the balance of being parents at a time when LGBT culture was not yet accepted. Their many challenges included facing jail time for a federal obscenity prosecution and enabling their store to be a place of refuge at the height of the AIDS crisis. Circus of Books offers a rare glimpse into an untold chapter of queer history, and it is told through the lens of the owners' own daughter, Rachel Mason, an artist, filmmaker and musician.

- DirectorJessica NettelbladtWhen Erik looks at pictures of himself as a child, it's like seeing a twin sister. A sister who's disappeared, with Erik taking her place. It's a reminder of the past, and the anxiety is palpable. Prince of Dreams takes us on a pilgrimage to the end of the world where the protagonist, Erik, looks back on his life. The bullying and feeling like an outsider at school. The artistry. But most of all the battle to accept yourself and believe that others can actually love you for who you really are. Erik, born as a girl, has for a long time struggled with gender dysphoria, with a past characterised by a feeling like an outsider and by vulnerability. As an 18-year-old, Erik starts the process of gender reassignment. Prince of Dreams is filmed over 10 years, following Erik from the age of 17 and until he turns 27. Despite the serious topics covered in the film, it is brimming with humour and love.
