Welcome everyone!

This page can be any and all things its members choose to make it. I would like to see it evolve into a central space where film makers, crew members, actors, and/or fans of GLBT Film Festivals across the globe can talk to one another and network to promote their films and festivals. Ultimately, this group should provide a means to communicate year round while serving the educational and cultural needs of its GLBT audiences and its allies. Please feel free to join and drop in any time to post a discussion or an update!
