BLUE SUNSHINE is a remarkable film . The debut film from Indian filmmaker Samyuktha Vijayan who wrote, directed and starred in this captivating new drama, that lays out a story of transitioning that is refreshingly unsensationalized. Based on her own journey Vijayan’s tale is powerfully uplifting and although it doesn’t beg us for support, it reminds one that they so deserve it. This is a story that need be shared as widely as possible to help us understand our trans brothers and sisters, better and I so hope it reaches the widest possible audience. On the eve of the film premiering at Wicked Queer, Boston’s LGBTQ Film Fest , she talked Queerguru about the journey of the film to date and where she hopes it will lead to in the future.
P.S. You can read Queerguru's full review of the film HERE
When we first met and interviewed CHEF ROSSI 5 years ago in PTown it was love at 1st sight (for me anyway)). She had just turned her colorful Jewish past into a best selling memoir and hit play that was running at WELLFLEET HARBOR ACTORS THEATER. Quick witted, wickedly funny she talked to QUEERGURU about The Raging Skillet and how as a feminist lesbian punk she just loves to stir it all up
Now she is back with her second memoir THE PUNK ROCK QUEEN OF THE JEWS which she is happy to share is much more R-rated . The woman is unstoppable : chef owner of The Raging Skillet a NY anti-catering company celebrating its 36th year : a writer, author, radio host, screenplay writer and a self confessed loudmouth . Oh yes we forget she is also a queer feminist Hungarian Jewish punk. The book to be published in April is impossible to put down … but meanwhile check out why she had me laughing so much just talking about it

This new UK drama is based on a remarkable true story that we first found very hard to believe It is the tale of Jay and Paul who are both serving life sentences for homophobic murders. Incredibly, they fall in love and seek permission to marry.
Kiss Marry Kill is an electrifying and intimate story of love and redemption. and this dramatic recreation from award-winning site-specific specialists Dante or Die, reimagines the first same-sex marriage that took place in a UK prison.
