London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival
London
29th March - 12th April
2006
The British Film Institute presents the 20th
anniversary London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival, opening with Don
Roos' 'Happy Endings' at the Odeon Leicester Square - making this
one of the world's largest ever lesbian and gay film events.
The Closing Night Gala will be Jan Dunn's award-winning, first
feature 'Gypo' screening at the Odeon West End. It is the UK's
first certified Dogme95 film and movingly brings to life responses
to questions of asylum and race.
There will be a further collaboration on gay artist films at Tate
Modern, this year featuring the pioneering work of writer, composer
and independent film and video-maker Stuart Marshall.
As the UK's third largest film festival, the LLGFF offers an
unrivalled showcase for the very best in European and World films,
welcoming audiences of over 25,000 and playing host to more than
100 visiting film-makers and actors. This year's festival reminds
us of the extraordinary diversity of lesbian and gay life with
outstanding contributions from Japan, Argentina, Israel, Iceland,
the Philippines, Korea, Spain, Norway, France, Germany, Canada, the
USA, India, and the UK.
