Jeannette gives an intimate and inspiring picture of a life interrupted but not destroyed by traumatic violence.

After surviving the tragic attack at Pulse, Jeannette is just trying to recover and continue with her life. Putting the pieces back together is hard but she takes comfort in her job as a personal trainer and in her community. A story anchored by Jeannette and her life and not by sensationalistic news footage, we see a woman supporting her family through tragedy in Puerto Rico while working toward her goal of becoming a bodybuilding champion and being a loving girlfriend and mother.

The memory of so many lesbian bars, whose stories are integral to lesbian history, is in danger of slipping away. But filmmaker Jacquie Lawrence is determined to not let that happen to one of Britain’s most storied meeting places.

Gateways Grind revisits the colourful history of The Gateways Club. Open from 1943 to 1985, the basement bar was a haven for women who could meet with friends and lovers to commune, snog, dance, and have a rollicking good time. Broadcaster and former Gateways regular, Sandi Toksvig takes us behind the club’s iconic green door on a hilarious, scandalous and moving tour of this much-loved Chelsea bar.

The International Male catalog reached gay and straight customers alike as it redefined images of masculinity in American culture. ALL MAN: The International Male Story journeys across three decades of the catalog’s unlikely but lasting impact on fashion, masculinity, and sexuality in America. It’s founder Gene Burkard, a once-closeted Midwesterner and GI, found freedom in San Diego, where he transformed men’s fashion into something cosmopolitan, carefree, and trend-setting.

This character-driven documentary crafts a portrait of a band of outsiders who changed the way men would look and how the world would look at them. This is their story—a modern day fairy tale about a dream that really did come true.
