The Weekend Has Arrived!

What to Watch at #Outfest40 Today, July 16, 2022
Its the first weekend of the Outfest Los Angeles LGBTQ Film Festival and we are taking over Los Angeles with screenings at the Directors Guild of America, REDCAT and Harmony Gold!

There are so many things to be excited for today but among them is our special Legacy screening of the groundbreaking film Punks, widely considered the first US feature film by a gay Black director that centered the lives and loves of Black gay men! Stay after the film for a Q&A moderated by Dear White People creator Justin Simien, with Patrik-Ian Polk and cast members Jazzmun, Vanessa Williams, and Rodney Chester!

Also today, get ready for goofy horror hijinks and high camp queer shenanigans at HeBGB TV! This year’s Platinum Centerpiece film, the screening includes an opening live action, spooky immersive experience. Get ready to be guided into the most ridiculously terrifying Halloween TV special ever seen on the big screen!
