Freshman Fest Flogs Nonfiction Film: Check out the inaugural Duke City DocFest, chock full of documentary goodness, and free to boot! Sunday Oct. 10 through Friday, Oct. 15, various venues around downtown Albuquerque.
The eighth annual Southwest Gay and Lesbian Film Festival — the Southwest's premiere showcase for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender cinema screens films as diverse as its audience. Reveling in its identity as the premiere outlet for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender cinema in the Southwest, Albuquerque’s own SG&LFF has been able to attract hundreds of quality features, documentaries and shorts. “People have begun to realize that, after eight years, our programming is really tight and we are open to the community at large. We’re definitely a gay and lesbian film festival, but we’re open to everyone.”
Oct. 8 through Oct. 14, at Guild Cinema, Southwest Film Center, Bank of America Theater at NHCC.
