NEWFEST SHORTS SHOWCASE
New York City’s LGBTQ+ film festival, NewFest, is teaming up with Vimeo for a third consecutive year of its Shorts Showcase. Available to stream for just $12, the digital event features five short films, and your ticket also gives you access to an exclusive roundtable Q&A with the filmmakers. I haven’t gotten a chance to check it out yet, but the film I’m most excited for is CLUB QUARANTINE, which documents how four friends’ IG page created on the first day of the pandemic lockdown got turned into a “Nightly-Online-Queer-Dance-Party with over 70,000 followers from all corners of the world.”
