Monday, September 14, 2020: LGBTIQ Frameline Film Festival

This September 14th on KPFA’s Women’s Magazine we look at some of the highlights of the LGBTIQ Frameline Film Festival which starts this Thursday, September 17th and runs through Sunday, September 27th online.

from Unapologetic

We talk to Dominque Oneil about some of the really special female centered fiction films. And then we talk to three documentarians who have feature films in Frameline, Ashley O’shay, who is director of the really timely and important new documentary “Unapologetic” which is a powerful and inspiring documentary that follows two Black, queer feminist Chicago women organizers working with the movement against police violence.  And Jen Rainin and Rivkah Beth Medow who are the co-directors of the new documentary “Ahead of the Curve” which is a film that looks at the history of the Lesbian glossy magazine Curve, its founder Franco Stevens and the importance of Curve magazine to the Lesbian community. 




Netflix, Hulu and other movie streaming sites may not have the lesbian or queer film that you want to see so look for the request page on their websites and ask for these films.
