T'Ain't Nobody's Bizness: Queer Blues Divas of the 1920s
2013
0h 29m
The 1920s saw a revolution in technology, the advent of the recording industry, that created the first class of African-American women to sing their way to fame and fortune. Blues divas such as Bessie Smith, Ma Rainey, and Alberta Hunter created and promoted a working-class vision of blues life that provided an alternative to the Victorian gentility of middle-class manners. In their lives and music, blues women presented themselves as strong, independent women who lived hard lives and were unapologetic about their unconventional choices in clothes, recreational activities, and bed partners. Blues singers disseminated a Black feminism that celebrated emotional resilience and sexual pleasure, no matter the source.

Eden, who is about to debut in a boyband, encounters Jihoon, an over-the-hill celebrity from the same agency as his. Not long after seeing Jihoon and determining that he would become a more popular star than Jihoon, Eden is told that he can make his debut only by doing a “business gay performance (BGP)” as a team with Jihoon. Eden wants to reject such a reality, but he follows what his agency wants him to do for his long-cherished dream of debuting. Eden feels averse to “BGP” while working in a boy band called “BoK”, and Jihoon naturally approaches and teases him.

In the meantime, with the appearance of top stars Hyunbin and Jay, misunderstandings between Eden and Jihoon build up… Will they be able to clear up the misunderstanding and find out their true feelings for each other?

The Fall of '55
In late 1955 and early 1956, the citizens of Boise, Idaho believed there was a menace in their midst. On Halloween, investigators arrested three men on charges of having sex with teenage boys. The investigators claimed the arrests were just the tip of the iceberg-they said hundreds of boys were being abused as part of a child sex ring. There was no such ring, but the result was a widespread investigation which some people consider a witch hunt. By the time the investigation ended, 16 men were charged. Countless other lives were also touched.In some cases, men implicated fled the area. At least one actually left the country. The investigation attracted attention in newspapers across the nation, including Time Magazine. The "Morals Drive" left scars which remain to this day.

Enter Achilles
A funny, cruel exploration of the male psyche, Enter Achilles is set in a typical British pub, a shabby, nicotine-stained boozer. Pop songs tumble out of the jukebox, there is football on the TV, and the eight men lark around, pint glasses in hand. But their blokish fun is balanced on a knife-edge of tension, for beneath the mateyness lurks a disturbing undercurrent of paranoia and insecurity, where weakness is brutally exploited and violence covers up vulnerability.
