FIVE SISTERS PRODUCTIONS is a helmed by the five Burton siblings and has been committed to making movies that are entertaining, enriching, and that also contribute to a sense of hope on a personal or social level. http://fivesistersproductions.com. Their documentary KINGS, QUEENS & IN-BETWEENS will be premiering at the Cleveland Int’l Film Festival this weekend! The festival has organized a special Film Forum around the film on Sunday. The showings are : Sat, 4/2 at 9:15 pm, and Sun, 4/3 at 11:15 am. KINGS, QUEENS & IN-BETWEENS will introduce you to your new heroes of our times and it all takes place here in Columbus, Ohio the Crown Jewel of Drag in the Midwest! Who knew? Everybody will after watching this fab documentary, filmed entirely in our “fantastic Gay Snow-Bubble in the middle of Ohio.” Gender is the New Frontier, and here are the pioneers who are defining, redrawing, and crossing those borders. Working within a supportive and nurturing community of artists and activists, this group of men, women, undecideds, and don’t-label-me’s are putting it all onstage for the empowerment and entertainment of all communities. They fight ignorance and prejudice, both within and without the LGBTQ community, with make-up, defiance, and the pleasures (and pain) of duct tape. Call them what you will (and they do not give a damn what that is), they are two things for certain: they are Strong and they are Fabulous. . So grab your Viking Hats, push-up bras, Day-Glo wigs, or repurposed Browns’ jerseys and join the party. You know you want to.
It is clear this film can really engage audiences and start important conversations, especially given all that is happening lately in the news on laws in Georgia and North Carolina. PFW provided a grassroots grant years ago and we send out robust CONGRATULATIONS to these dedicated women artists. Our own Wexner Center for the Arts will be doing a Columbus premiere event of the film on June 7, cosponsored by Stonewall, so mark your calendar. COLUMBUS IS THE CENTER OF THE NEW UNIVERSE!
