New Fest 2006 by Wendy Dembo
The 18th New York Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, & Transgender Film Festival, New Fest 2006, is in full swing. The line-up offers features, shorts, domentaries and filmmaker forums. I was looking at the web site and it looks like they have a lot of “boys” in the titles: Real Boys, Boy I Am, Boy Culture, Daddy’s Boy, Boy With a Ball, and more. On Wednesday, 7 June 2006, I am going to see the short The Bridge (pictured right) which won the City of Melbourne Emerging Filmmaker Award for Best Australian Short Film and was produced by my friend Lazaro Hernandez. I also hope to catch 20 Centimeters (left), Ramón Salazar’s Spanish musical fantasy about a pre-op trannie, which closes the festival on 11 June 2006.

Still, sometimes the weekly choice of what to do is refreshingly simple. The Japan Society, the city's premier institution for fostering education on the artistic, social, and political concerns of Japanese culture, has a brilliant ongoing film series, with this...

The Bicycle Film Festival 2007
Mid-Bike Month NYC, we almost think the city should consider re-naming it Bicycle Film Festival month in honor of the event that was founded in New York seven years ago. The Bicycle Film Festival now tours 15 cities in the U.S. and around the world (props for adding Portland this year!) and it all starts today, 16 May 2007, in NYC. In addition to...

Christian Jankowski: Us and Them
Inspired by juxtapositions of different worlds and subcultures, Christian Jankowski's conceptual work often involves non-artists such as televangelists, psychics, children, and therapists. An extension of Jankowski's previous experiments with commercial filmmaking conventions, "Us and Them," a seasonally-appropriate exhibit of new works including videos, film, photography and sculpture, explores the horror film genre "suggesting how cinematic visions of monstrosity and violence can also communicate broader...
