About Reel Queer
Welcome to Out Takes 2004 Auckland
Here at Reel Queer we’ve done our
utmost to present an amazing range of feature film, documentary and short
film marvels from around the world for your viewing pleasure! Our aim is
to give queer New Zealanders access to films that reflect the diversity of
our own lives and connect us to queer communities around the world.
Remember that mainstream cinemas and TV in this country would not normally
screen these films – they’re too queer!
Civil unions, gay marriage, gay parenting, gays and lesbians in the police and military – these are hot topics, and this year’s outstanding selection of documentaries is an antidote for the negativity and distortion present in today’s political and social climate. We recommend Paternal Instinct, Late Wedding, No Secret Anymore! and Gay Cops: Pride Behind The Badge if you need uplifting.
This is a great year for queer romance where ‘boy does get boy’ and
‘girl gets girl’ – so be sure to book early for this year’s
sure-fire hits Eating Out, Latter
Days, My Mother Likes Women and
our funny and charming Irish opening night film Goldfish
Memory.
We continue our successful retrospective screenings this year with a reprise of Desert Hearts; a rare opportunity for you to see a classic lesbian flick brought to life on the big screen!
We’re delighted to be collaborating again with Village Hoyts Cinemas
Queen St and, for the first time, with the Academy Cinema which has
excellent facilities and a great festival atmosphere.
We hope you’ll make the most of this opportunity to catch up with friends and, of course, to enjoy these wonderful films.
