Queer Bits Film Fest

Pride Films and Plays announces eight short films and three episodes from Chicago-based web series receiving their Chicago premieres during Queer Bits Film Festival at the Pub Theatre (3914 N Clark) on June 30, 2014.

Pride Films and Plays' Queer Bits Film Festival will include a sexy comedy about two straight actors stripping down to rehearse a gay love scene, a touching and truthful story of a father and son trying to reconnect in the wake of a traumatic experience, a light-hearted documentary about a lesbian couple trying their hand at filmmaking, and a powerful and action-packed drama about two young men fighting for love in an institution waging war on homosexuality.

The featured web series could not be more diverse! "Dudes" finds three friends on the wrong side of their thirties searching for sex and love all over the city while "Coffee Talk" is about friends confronting hot-button issues over a cup of coffee. These are just some of the tantalizing offerings at Queer Bits Film Fest which will be at the Pub Theatre on June 30 at 7:30 P.M. The full program is listed below.

The screening commences at 7:30 P.M. and will be followed by a brief talkback with some of the filmmakers. The Pub Theater bar will be open beginning at 6:30 P.M. Please come early and have a drink with us!
