Atlantic Film Fest will be a gay ole time

The Atlantic Film Festival announced its lineup on Tuesday, Aug 21, and it contains quite a few queer films this year. I thought I would share some of the films I’d like to catch.

First up is Jobriath AD, a documentary about the fabled gay glam god who was supposed to be the queerer version of Bowie.

Second is Keep the Lights On, a film about two men living in New York City as they try to understand each other, their love and themselves, all without destroying each other or their relationship.

And of course, another documentary, this one entitled The Secret Disco Revolution, featuring interviews with Mr Studio 54 and The Gallery himself, Nicky Siano.

Journalist, writer, blogger, producer.
