Lucie accidentally announces her need to have kids with her girlfriend Marion... via microphone to a karaoke club . When Marion agrees\, they go through one train-wreck of a sperm donor after another. And when they tell their families\, the real fun begins. Lucie's neurotic hippie parents worry that her desire to have kids means she's becoming "too normal". Marion's pathologically homophobic church- lady mom refuses to call Marion a mother\, only because she's not the on e giving birth. Just as things start to stabilize\, the dyke-parent coup le that are their role models go down in drunken messy flames. And their donor Hugo\, whom they're hoping will take interest in the pregnancy\, seems more interested in a poker game than an ultrasound. All this befor e the final trimester! Amidst the pile-up of trouble\, The New World has plenty of warmth and humanity\, as well. Family\, the film shows us\, i s something you create\, as much as it is something you're born into. Wh at's more\, the film subtly but successfully skewers France's homophobic laws about gay parenting. These wide-eyed mommies-to-be may have no ide a what they're doing\, but they're in it together.

DESCRIPTION:A richly intelligent compilation of international reportage b roadcast in November 2007 for La Nuit Gay on French TV's Canal Plus chan nel. This is an enlightened and fascinating portrait of lesbian\, gay an d transgender lives as they are lived now\, unlike anything you might se e on British television. \n \nThe films offer a personal insight into di fferent scenes: in a tattooed model who is also a former Mr Leather\, Ge rmany is depressed by the paucity of gay culture. In Paris there's a vie w of life for a rightwing gay activist as Sarkozy comes to power and a p aean to a much-loved lesbian rock club. A trans couple in Madrid look to the outside world like a model of heteronormativity and we take a trip into the lesbian underground in Havana. Not forgetting a fascinating exc ursion around Beijing with filmmaker Cui Zi'en and a transvestite guide to Madrid Gay Pride. \n \n\nBrian Robinson CATEGORIES:Documentary LOCATION:Buskirk-Chumley Theater URL:http://bloomingtonpride.bside.com/2009/films/gaysowhat_bloomingtonpri de2009 UID:580885670-bloomingtonpride.bside.com/2009 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20091123T071953Z DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20090131T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20090131T183000 SUMMARY:IU GLBTAA Reception DESCRIPTION:Off-site reception.

After his eccentric teacher casts him as Puck in A Midsum mer Night's Dream\, he stumbles upon a recipe hidden within the script t o create the play's magical\, purple love-pansy. Armed with the pansy\, Timothy's fading spirit soars as he puckishly imposes a new reality by t urning much of his narrow-minded town gay\, beginning with the rugby-joc k of his dreams. Ensnaring family\, friends and enemies in this heart-wr enching chaos\, Timothy forces them to walk a mile in his musical shoes.

With vibrant imagery\, a first-rate ensemble cast and inn ovative music rivaling the best of pop/ rock and contemporary Broadway\, Were the World Mine attempts to push modern gay cinema and musical film beyond expectation.
