The short film has always been crucial to queer film culture; a realm where new ideas and new filmmakers have been tested and discovered. These delightful shorts from the Outfest/UCLA Legacy Collection demonstrate myriad storytelling strategies, and hearken to the pre-You Tube days of the late 1990s, when shorts were a staple of queer film. They also offer glimpses of Los Angeles in that halcyon period in emergent LGBT culture.
