The gay-male short film collection, Boys On Film, has become the most successful short film DVD series in the world, which is now up to 16 instalments. A couple of years ago it got a lesbian companion release, Girls On Film, which presented a great selection of female-driven shorts. It’s taken a little while, but now the second Girls On Film release, Before Dawn, is on its way.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘An electric collection of the latest, award-winning lesbian and feminist short films exploring fantasies, dreams, desires, love and transgression.
‘Featuring chance encounters, teenage lust, girl fighters, self-conscious dolls and rampant zombies alongside journeys of self-discovery, the fight for equality and a playful take on stereotypes. GIRLS ON FILM 2: BEFORE DAWN takes you on an incredible adventure from America to Australia through Iceland, the UK and Algeria into worlds beyond.’
The release is available on DVD and VoD on July 24th. Take a look at the trailer and some clips below. [Read more…]
