CONTENT WARNING:

At the suggestion of a straight friend, gay man Leo joins a men’s group, where he causes some upsets by declaring his attraction to one of its members.

This film is presented in English with English subtitles.

With her thoughtful depiction of relationships and sexual identity in the nineties, Rose Troche of Go Fish fame has created a sophisticated and witty romantic comedy. The story revolves around flatmates Leo and Darren, and their friend Angie. Leo seeks a substantial relationship while Darren is content with casual sex. Leo, disillusioned with the singles scene, finally joins a "new-man" therapy group, where he meets the handsome Brendan. What follows is a fun romp with sparkling humor and buoyant performances. "Bedrooms and Hallways is an original, lively examination of the trials and tribulations of lust and love, brimming with scintillating performances by a fine cast of young British actors" (Michèle Maheux, Toronto International Film Festival Catalog.)

Jeanette L. Buck

Winner of the 1998 Los Angeles Outfest's Outstanding Emerging Talent Award, Buck's Out of Season is a touching and subtle love story set in the picturesque seaside resort of Cape May, New Jersey. Micki, a restless, leather-jacketed, and Marlboro-smoking lesbian with loads of attitude, finds herself in a small town, caring for her dying uncle Charlie and running from everything, including her ex and her photography career. She finds a few surprises, one of which is the other lesbian in town, Roberta, a forty-year-old African-American waitress at the local diner and a good friend of her uncle. Jealousy, fear, and love all play a part in the story that ensues as both women struggle to find a way to trust. Buck has created a feature that is at once engaging, credible, and satisfying.

Hip lesbian Micki Silva leaves her fast-paced urban lifestyle for Cape May, New Jersey, to help her ailing uncle Charlie. At the local diner, run by Shelley, Micki meets Charlie’s friend Roberta. Roberta likes her house, working at the diner, and numerous aspects of the small-town way of life that bore Micki, but opposites attract. Drawn together by the dying Charlie, the two women develop a complex relationship.
