El Ganzo
Identity and self-discovery evolve in an epic journey through the majesty of a Mexico rarely seen in the new queer film El Ganzo.

The next day she awakens at the hotel puzzled and confused and runs into Guy (Anslem Richardson), a handsome gay photographer. There is an instant unconscious bond between the two and they become deeply connected by their desires for companionship. While Guy struggles to find the inspiration he needs to create his masterpiece, Lizzy starts to remember her old identity, and discovers an entirely new one in the process.
Theft
When gentle, unassuming bar worker Guy Simms (Matthew Charles Burnett) is yanked out of his mundane routine mopping floors at a gay cabaret and accused of burning down the evangelical church by his small town’s local preacher, he overcomes his fear of authority to prove his innocence and fight for his freedom! Writer/director Paul Bright‘s sardonic satire Theft is a fairy tale that involves drag queens, leathermen, small town prejudice and bizarrely twisted family ties. Mixing topical barbs with goofy comedy, this is a fun romp through a tough topic.
