Seven Minutes in Heaven is a sexual game played by teenagers at house parties in which two people are given 7 minutes together inside a dark room. In the spirit of Surrealist experimentation, creativity and chance, the filmmakers in this program have produced an exquisite corpse where each 7 minute section expands on the last producing metaphoric, literal, fantastic and freaky meanings.
Guest Curator: Felix Endara

Huge Issue: Raw
Huge Issue has been created in order to produce some brief and pro-vocative cinematographic expressions, using consumer technologies and experimental production model. 22 directors are given no budget, 1 day to shoot, 2 days to edit a three-minute short film. It is an exhibi-tion of innovative, provocative work that emphasizes craftsmanship over competition and big budgets. It is the follow-up of Huge Issue in 2000, that has had a wild success. This time is for each director a 3-minute film interpreting what the word Raw means to them. The result is a program of honest,innovative, and entertaining work. RAW features films from emerging new talents as well as established, groundbreaking directors from around the world.

The (a)eromestiza Project
Galeria del la Raza, San Francisco
Asian American Theatre Company presents (a)eromestiza in collaboration with the National Queer Arts Festival and the Asian Pacific Islander Cultural Center, curated by Gigi Otalvaro-Hormillosa. Showcasing works by queer, Pinay, API and mixed heritage women from San Francisco and New York City, featuring live performance, video, and installation. Areas of focus: challenge stereotypical representations of identity, community, sex, and eroticism by exploring these issues through the aerodynamic filter of a new "mestizaje" in which there is a constant, yet fluid interplay between racial and sexual identities. (a)eromestiza will offer experimental, text-based, visual, video-based, movement and theoretical perspectives on race, gender, sexuality and the endurance of the mind and body of the queer API woman as she exists and moves through the world.
