It’s that time of year again when we start seeing the announcements from the first wave of 2018’s LGBTQ Film Festivals and with them comes a spectrum of new queer cinema to whet our appetites.   These Festivals across the globe are not just a continuing celebration of our community but they give LGBT filmmakers a unique and vital chance to get their work in front of an audience in the hope that this will lead to an opportunity for it being released in movie theaters and on global streaming platforms in the future.

One gay filmmaker who is a regular on the circuit and has enjoyed success with movies he has produced such as Mulligans, Postive Youth, I’m a Porn Star etc is Charlie David.  He is also an actor and best known playing Toby in  Dante’s Cove.  His latest cinematic treat is a three-episode TV series called Shadowlands which he wrote, directed and starred in and which is premiering at Qfest in Philadelphia as the Centerpiece film on March 21st. 

Shadowlands explores love in three separate stories – a couple renegotiating a relationship, a narcissist grasping to comprehend it, and star-crossed lovers mourning its loss. David sent us a sneak of its very hot trailer which is below and promised to let us know what other LGBT festivals it will appear before being aired online.
