Film festival celebrates sexual diversity

For the third consecutive year, the Guadalajara International Film Festival will showcase films whose narratives reveal an open sexuality, a cinema of acceptance towards sexual diversity.

The best film in this category will be presented with the Maguey Award.  Eighteen films from 14 countries will compete for this year’s prize. They are Free Fall (Germany), Snails in the Rain (Israel), The Dune aka La Dune (France/Israel), Test (U.S.), Sarah Prefers To Run (Canada), Off Road (Italy), Four Moons aka Cuatro Lunas (Mexico), Gerontophilia (Canada), Out in the Line Up (Australia), Tom at the Farm (Canada/France), Floating Skyscrapers (Poland), Ignasi M (Spain), Land of Storms (Hungary/Germany), Getting Go; the Go Doc Project (U.S.), Julia (Germany Italy), Dual (Slovenia), the Winner of the Teddy Award 2014 The Way He Looks aka Hoje Eu Quero Voltar Sozinho (Brazil), and Bad Hair aka Pelo Malo (Venezuela).

For the first time, the Premio Maguey presents a film section curated by Jürgen Brüning, director of Porn Film Festival Berlin, which seeks to capture something inherent about the human: sexuality in all its manifestations and cinematography focused on the porn universe.
