Wilson Chapman editorOutfest has announced the lineup for its 2022 Outfest Fusion QTBIPOC (Queer, Trans, Black, Indigenous and People of Color) Film Festival.The Los Angeles-based festival will screen seven features, three episodic titles and 52 short films this year, which marks the 40th anniversary for Outfest and the 19th year of Outfest Fusion, founded in 2004 to spotlight queer and trans filmmakers of color.
The seven feature titles are Micheal Rice’s “Black as U R,” Horacio Alcala’s “Finlandia,” William T. Horner and Stacey Woelfel’s “Keep the Cameras Rolling: The Pedro Zamora Way,” Marianne Amelinckx’s “Mustache Mondays (Artbound),” Émerson Maranhão’s “Transversals,” Quentin Lee’s “White Frog” and Bretten Hannam’s “Wildhood.” “As we find ourselves back in a moment where our rights as LGBTQIA+ people are being taken away and our very existence silenced, we know these moves have a greater impact on LGBTQIA+ communities of color,” Outfest executive director Damien S.
Navarro said in a statement. “We have continued to evolve Outfest Fusion in ways we hope empower the next generation of storytellers to reshape their own narrative and to drive cultural change.”Added Outfest artistic director Faridah Gbadamosi: “The programming at Outfest Fusion exists to directly close and challenge the systemic access gap for LGBTQIA+ people of color.
With this year’s festival we continue to grow upon that mission and I’m very excited to work on creating solutions to these systemic problems.”In addition to screenings of these works, the QTBIPOC film festival will also present the One-Minute Movie Contest.
