This short film program includes the following films:

Heart

CONTENT WARNING:
Damien is compelled to follow his heart for what he thinks may be one last chance at happiness. Watching out for him are Fiona and Doc who prove that family is not always who you're born to but who's got your back.

Dol (First Birthday)

CONTENT WARNING:
Nick is a gay Korean-American man living in Koreatown, Los Angeles with his partner Brian and their dog Chloe. When Nick attends his baby nephew's 'dol,' a traditional Korean first birthday party, he finds himself yearning for a life just out of reach.

Fallen Comrade

CONTENT WARNING:
The story of the bond between two Soldiers in the US Army and the impact after one is lost in combat. Julian, a Soldier in the Army, reminisces at the Military burial of Alexander, revealing times in combat, in training, and intimate moments shared with the Soldier; his battle buddy, his lover...

H2B Angels

CONTENT WARNING:
H2B Angels is a commanding documentary of families, partners, and friends who come together to determinedly fight HIV/AIDS as a community. Potent memories of love, loss, and still tender stories are evoked as filmmaker Vince Sandoval follows rider Joe and husband and crew member Jean-Charles Scappaticci at the 9th Harbor to the Bay HIV/AIDS benefit bike ride. As we hear from riders like the Scappaticcis, the ride founders, and shadow a dedicated crowd from Boston to Provincetown, we are reminded that, even today, no one is untouched by HIV/AIDS.

Last Man Out

CONTENT WARNING:
A lonely, sexually repressed, accountant takes a day trip to a Boston Harbor island hoping to escape the city and enjoy his favorite Walt Whitman poetry book. But 150 years ago the island's now decaying Civil War fort served as the final prison for a young Confederate soldier. And now before this summer night ends - for better or worse - long imprisoned spirits could be freed.

Mais ou Menos

CONTENT WARNING:
Teenager Ivo is constantly bullied by Sandro, his high school classmate. Their troubled relationship seems irreconcilable until an unexpected encounter changes everything.

The Men's Room

CONTENT WARNING:
The Men's Room is an emotionally charged short film dealing with explicit themes of male sexuality, intimacy, and the concept of public decency. When Thomas ventures into a park for a sexual encounter with a stranger, he uncovers a striking complexity composed of desire, fear, and betrayal when his would-be anonymous sex partner turns out to be a cop. The Men's Room explores the seemingly unwelcome yet enduring pastime of public sex, a world of secrecy and code lurking just below the surface of normalcy.

Jitters

FREE

Sun, May 12 @ 3:00 pm
Brattle Theater
in person
A refreshingly realistic take on teenage life, Jitters follows Icelandic teenager Gabriel on a trip to England, where he has a life-changing encounter with the rebellious and freethinking Marcus. As Gabriel reconnects with his tight-knit circle of friends back home, his confusion about his sexual identity is brought to the fore when tragedy befalls the group, forcing them to re-evaluate their fragile relationships to each other and to their families. Jitters has been awarded the Don Quixote Award at the Kristiansand International Children’s Film Festival as well as being selected as the opening film in the youth section.
An unexpected first kiss causes Gabriel to feel the electrifying “jitters” of love and lust with the free-spirited Marcus; a perfect way to end a Summer studying abroad. Realizing he is gay, Gabriel returns home and is immediately scrutinized by his family and friends who notice he’s different. But as the school year launches with Gabriel distracted with parties and his friends’ own dramas, Marcus returns, reigniting the hot, thrilling emotions of one’s first crush. Jitters fires head-first into the topsy-turvy world of first love with an attractive cast and pulsating soundtrack, making it a smartly refreshing journey into the queer, teen experience.
