2nd Best

CONTENT WARNING:
Sometimes you just can’t stop fighting. Riley and Adrienne ( a real life couple from Portland, Oregon) are coming back from a long day at IKEA already in a terrible mood, and even though Riley knows Adrienne is on the brink of a breakdown about having to eat the only thing they have left in the house (a brick of cold tofu) Riley still decides it’s a good time to ask Adrienne to reassure her about their sex life.

Coffee and Pie

CONTENT WARNING:
Coffee & Pie is a self proclaimed anti-romantic comedy, and yet a quirky love story of sorts. It is a contemporary tale about relationships and the people who engage in them. The story examines two characters; June and October and their drastically different notions and takes on love and life.

It's not true that Salas S.A.L. takes advantage of the staff. Then her boss tells her that she doesn't think anymore that it is a bad idea to fall in love with an employee.

Sometimes People...

CONTENT WARNING:
Set in the early 1900's, the film follows the story of Margaret Harkin, a lower class seamstress, and her encounter with Emily Blake, an elegant young debutante from an aristocratic household. As Emily's overbearing mother makes the final arrangements for her daughter to be married and Margaret labours to complete the dress Emily is to be wed in, it becomes apparent that any form of association between the two women could prove too volatile to be permitted. Sometimes People... is the story of two women who meet, fall for each other, and then explode violently upon touching.

Strangers

CONTENT WARNING:
Strangers tells the story of a mother, daughter and daughter-in-law, outwardly bound by kinship but inwardly devoid of emotional closeness. When a former relationship is rekindled between the latter two, the household is forced to confront a disconcerting truth.

Men to Kiss

in person
Come and enjoy the New England Premiere of this great comedy. Colourful balloon dresses, long party nights in Berlin’s trendy clubs and erotic evenings on the dining table – this is the chaotic relationship of the unequal couple of Ernst and Tobias. Though opposites attract, respectable banker Ernst is often unsure, whether bubbly and always cheerful Tobias takes their relationship as seriously as he does. Soon they rise to a challenge of every relationship: everyday living together and mutual trust. The sudden appearance of Uta, Ernst’s eccentric school friend, fundamentally changes their relationship. Uta forges out a scheming plan, which Ernst completely falls for. Together with his friends, Tobias spares no efforts to checkmate the unwelcome guest as soon as possible – and sets events in motion that increasingly get out of control.   To date, the German gay movie was mostly limited to coming out stories of young men. “Men to kiss” charmingly proves that homosexuality can play another role in gay movie and replaces common clichés with authentic everyday stories. “Men to kiss”: an entertaining comedy about love, friendship and Berlin, full of vivid dialogues and emotional moments, that captivates the viewer with its taking characters from the first minutes on.
The gay couple Tobi and Ernie are being visited by Ernie’s old friend Uta. What at first looks like an innocent house-call, turns into an insidious attack on the couple’s relationship.
