Durban Gay & Lesbian Film Festival

Durban Gay & Lesbian Film Festival

Date: 2015-06-26
The 5th annual Durban Gay & Lesbian Film Festival (DGLFF) will be taking place from Thursday 18 June to Friday 26 June 2015 at the KZNSA Gallery, 166 Bulwer Road, Glenwood, Durban.

As a partner of the Durban Prideweek with the main parade happening on Saturday 27 June. After our Closing Night, the DGLFF forms a key part of Ethekwini's pink celebrations with free morning public workshops and lunchtime screenings, afternoon filmmaker workshops and evening screenings including feature films, documentaries and short films.

Tickets for main screenings are from R30 per person and special package rates are available - see the website for details.This year sees a retrospective of well known Canadian gay filmmaker Charlie David's recent films Mulligans (2009), Scenes From A Gay Marriage (2012).

More Scenes From A Gay Marriage (2014) and the Pink African Premiere of his latest film Paternity Leave (2015) with Chris Salvatore (Eating Out series) along with powerful documentaries Beyond Gay: The Politics of Pride (2009) and Positive Youth (2013). Charlie is a great supporter of the DGLFF with his well received film Judas Kissopening the inaugural DGLFF in 2011. We look forward to having Charlie as a guest of this year's Festival thanks to the support of the Canadian High Commission in Pretoria.

Additional films to look forward to are A Reunion (USA/2014), a gay road trip film that brings two estranged friends back together on a journey to attend their alma mater reunion in Chicago whilst confronting a complicated past; and Shadows of Yesterday (Philippines/2014), a drama that focuses on the growing romance of two guys during student uprisings that pit love and principles against ideology.

We are also proud to announce the World Premiere of a brand new South African lesbian drama, My Name Is Rose, a story of forced marriage, African tradition and newly discovered love between two young African women coming to terms with a patriarchal society. The film will screen on Friday 19 June at 7pm. Starring Enoch Mnguni, Slindile Dlamini and Zenele Mazibuko, My Name Is Rose, looks at the emerging sexuality of a young Zulu princess in rural KZN who flees to Durban to avoid being 'sold' to an older chief for 40 cattle, and in doing so initiates great changes in her world.

Filmmakers Mlungisi Msomi and Sekara Mafisa will be attending the premiere as guests of the Festival.In addition, more than a dozen international short films and deeply moving documentaries will be included in the 8 day Festival.
