Bruce LaBruce in Person!
Bruce LaBruce is a writer, filmmaker, and photographer stuck in the gulag otherwise known as Toronto, Canada. He started out as a child, then quickly moved on to the production of homo punk fanzines and super 8 movies. These products helped to launch the so-called Homocore or Queercore movement, which corrupted a whole new generation of homosexuals. The program will include LaBruce’s 1999 feature Skin Flick and selections from Eat My Shorts (1987-95), a compilation of early shorts LaBruce made with Candy Parker (Jennifer Tsai). 1987-1999, Canada, ca. 90 min, video.
