"September is film fest season, and that means celebrity sightings, red-carpet galas and, um, movies. But don’t worry if you don’t have the cash or the right thing to wear to Jean Dujardin’s big opening, because the Toronto Urban Film Festival has your back. Dress code? Casual. Price of admission? One TTC token. TUFF is showing one-minute silent films (83 of them from 16 countries) on subway-platform screens all over the city. And will that include queer content? You betcha.
Filmmaker/choreographer Rebecca Reinhart’s Would You Babe is a sexy dance piece inspired by the difficult coming-out process of a friend. “To me, it was something so natural and beautiful,” Reinhart says, “but to some, it was something so odd and unknown. Being gay is something so new for many people in this world, yet it’s so simple and natural — and tied to our histories, whether some people want to admit it or not.”"
