The perfect marriage. The secret affairs. The love that will set them free... "Love Life"
Are the sexual secrets behind Joe and Mary's marriage of convenience strong enough to melt their perfect facade? Joe, a gorgeous former professional baseball player turned coach, and Mary, his trophy wife with a trust fund, entered an unconventional union with an agreed upon code of conduct: outside affairs were acceptable under the precept of emotional detachment. While renovating their dream home, however, Joe and Mary's arrangement begins to crack. Joe indulges his homosexual desires with secretive, anonymous sex... until his true emotions are unleashed after a dangerous liaison with the landscaper. Meanwhile, Mary's beautiful best friend from college (an out lesbian), coerces Mary to confront the fragile suppression of their past tryst. With the truth out in the open, Joe and Mary must decide... can they continue their "comfortable" life of self-deception, or will they have the courage to set themselves free - to love honestly, regardless of the social price? A cool, intelligent, and provocatively erotic examination of the illusory choices we make and the personal redemption we doggedly pursue, “Love Life” is as stunning and sexy as it is emotionally uplifting - an essential gay and lesbian-themed romantic drama from award-winning writer/director Damion Dietz (“Neverland”). Unrated/USA/2006/72 mins./color

| Neverland |
|
A daring, bold, and startlingly original retelling of the classic children's novel Peter Pan, NEVERLAND unfolds against an ultra-modern, hyper-realistic backdrop. When Peter takes Wendy to Neverland - a burnt-out suburban amusement park filled with self-styled fairies, lost punks, and ambiguously beautiful performers - the ultimate fantasy/adventure story becomes a fascinating nightmare at the hands of Captain Hook, who is hell-bent on destroying the youth and beauty he so desperately envies. Shot using groundbreaking, cutting-edge film and digital video technology, NEVERLAND is a striking motion picture that artfully exposes the sinister side of the fairy tale that is seared into our pop-cultural consciousness.

| Totally Confused |
|
This gem of a romantic comedy plays like a hybrid of “Clerks” and Woody Allen.
Johnny is a struggling rock & roller, living in Chicago where his best friend Wiley spends his time collecting porn magazines and wrestling with his sexuality. Johnny’s life is looking up when his manager Murray tells him of an impending deal with a major label. Excited, Johnny moves his girlfriend Annie into his apartment and prepares to be a major rock star. Little by little, however, Johnny begins to suspect that the “deal” is going nowhere. Having problems with his girlfriend and fearing for his professional career, Johnny’s life gets even more complicated when Wiley puts the moves on him. With engaging performances, tack – sharp dialogue and shameless affection for slapstick, “Totally Confused” takes nothing seriously, least of all its characters’ sexual uncertainty.. (USA) (1998)
