With his own career in shambles, Zach sees Danny making the same mistakes he did — and he decides to take matters into his own hands. With hotties Sean Paul Lockhart (aka adult-fave Brent Corrigan) and Timo Descamps rounding out the collegiate cast as Danny’s fellow students — JUDAS KISS serves up a highly entertaining gay dramatic feature film experience!

KAWA

A powerful coming out movie, KAWA is a gorgeously cinematic drama that tells a transcendent tale of bravery, love, family and pride. Based on the semi-autobiographical novel Nights in the Gardens of Spain by Witi Ihimaera (the writer of The Whale Rider), this deeply moving New Zealand drama has earned critical and popular acclaim on the LGBT film festival circuit and beyond. When successful businessman Kawa (the ruggedly handsome Calvin Tuteao) finds the courage to tell his wife and kids, his parents and his traditional Maori community that he’s gay the struggle he endures is not an easy one.

Until recently Kawa has led a perfected double-life, but now his father Hamiora is retiring and ready to hand him the mantle of leadership. At the same time, his lover Chris is pushing for more recognition in Kawa’s life, no longer happy with keeping their relationship a secret.

As the film opens, Kawa has moved out of the family home. His wife is desperate to understand why - she knows the marriage is in trouble - and she wants to do whatever it takes to make things right. But Kawa is unable to talk about it. He hopes, instead, that he can continue to keep his life in separate compartments.

But when his lover arrives at the whanau celebration of his father’s birthday celebration, pressures intensify and Kawa realizes that his life must change. And that many people will be hurt, including himself.

Leave it on the Floor

A terrific new gay musical from Beyonce's creative team “Dazzling... colorful... vibrant choreography thanks to Beyonce’s choreographer Frank Gaston... great beats and glamorous attitude.” – Indiewire 

Featuring music by Beyonce music director Kim Burse, and choreography by Beyonce dance master, Frank Gatson Jr., this exuberant musical directed by Sheldon Larry was inspired by the “vogueing” sensation featured in the 1990 documentary Paris Is Burning, and is an ode to the wild, funky and heart-aching life of this underground subculture. Thrown out of his home by his dysfunctional mother, Brad (rising Broadway star Ephraim Sykes) steals her car and travels into Los Angeles where, through a chance encounter, he stumbles into a noisy raucous, chaotic event and meets the ragtag members of the struggling House of Eminence.

Initially only looking for a place to sleep (and perhaps someone to sleep with), Brad ends up engaging with the colorful members of the house led by the indomitable house mother Queef Latina (Barbie-Q), herself an aging ball-legend and the fierce protectrice of her family. Laughter, tears, sex sirens, and butch queens up in pumps ensue and remarkably, Brad ends up finding an extraordinary home and loving, caring family in this, the strangest of places. DELUXE EDITION: This special Deluxe Edition comes with a Bonus Extra music video!
