A SHORTS ROMANCE
Monday, June 27 • 6:00pm
Four award-winning short films each offering a unique perspective on the joys and heartaches of romance...at any age and for any gender.
Candy Apple Red
directed by Todd Norris - USA/14 Min
Emily is an aspiring photographer in a failing relationship with a man. Her world changes when she meets Lisa, a massage therapist. Emily agrees to take portraits of Lisa (played by KC Gay Film Fest fave Lisa Marie Evans), and the photo session becomes an experience that challenges Emily's self-image and awakens her sexuality. A Kansas City original short film.
Gayby
directed by Jonathan Lisecki - USA/15 Min
Jenn (Jenn Harris) and Matt (Matthew Wilkas) are best friends from college who are now in their 30s. Lately, their relationship has dwindled to the occasional social-networking exchange. In an effort to "reconnect," they decide to have a baby together, taking the easiest, cheapest route of just having sex — even though Matt is gay and Jenn is straight. Gayby is written and directed by Jonathan Lisecki, winner of the Spirit of Slamdance Award. Warning: this film contains an incredibly awkward sex scene.
The Colonel's Outing
directed by Christopher Banks - New Zealand//17 Min
Eighty-something Tristan Arthur Jones used to write about fictional war heroes, and fell in love with every single one. He always hoped he'd meet one for real, and with the arrival of Colonel Robert Leadley at his rest home, it seems like his dreams have come true. The Colonel moves into Tristan's room and they grow very close, much to the concern of the patronising Matron, who seems determined to interfere at every turn. There's no option but to escape.
Armed with a picnic lunch and a hip flask, Tristan and the Colonel take off in his faded Chrysler for a fateful day on the town, where promises are made, and painful secrets are revealed - but is their time up before it's really begun?
GaySharkTank.com
directed by Guy Shalem - USA/15 Min
This funny, wacky short is about the first gay knock off to sites like to Chat Roulette.com told through the interactions of 25 strangers looking for love, lust, and other things you might look for on a random gay video chat.
