Big Sur Gay Porn
2023 / US / documentary
Director: Ryan A. White
English, 12 min
Cult filmmaker Tom DeSimone revisits the production of a lost gay film and resurrects youthful adventures on the California coast, but nostalgia isn’t always 20/20 vision.
“Big Sur Gay Porn” is an ode to the queer possibilities of rural, outdoor spaces. It is a film about memory, history, and aging – as seen through one man’s stories of a very special place. The project explores rarely discussed LGBTQ+ experiences in one of America’s most popular tourist destinations, and continues inquiries about the documentary value of gay pornography.

Les Dieux du supermarché
2022 / Switzerland / experimental
Director: Alberto Gonzalez Morales
English, French, 8 min
In times of body positive movements this film pays tribute to the mainstream representation of the male body which the director has a love-hate relationship with. Through a series of gleaned images from the internet and elsewhere, our cultural obsession with unrealistic beauty standards is put into question.
At Least I’ve Been Outside
Zumindest bin ich draußen gewesen
2022 / Austria / documentary
Director: Jan Soldat
English, 6 min
Spring at a Viennese Lake, but too cold to swim. Nobody there who wants to be filmed. A short film about the interchangeability and misunderstandings of digital communication. But also an intimate and humorous insight into the working methods of a filmmaker and questions of filmmaking in general.
