Scheduled to be held at
Burns Court Cinemas in downtown Sarasota, on Saturday, August 18 and Sunday,
August 19, the Fabulous Independent Film Festival will mark its second
anniversary with 6 feature films, 6 shorts and 3 parties celebrating diversity
in the LGBT community.  The festival is organized by broken rules
productions in association with and benefiting the Harvey Milk Festival, a
non profit organization.  Tickets are $8, opening and closing night
films are $10, available on www.fabulousiff.com and
at Burns Court Cinemas on the days of the festival.

Films scheduled are SASSY
PANTS, presented by Watermark Media, a wild satire of a teenaged girl who
runs away from her dominantly cheerful mom to her gay dad's trailer home, now
living with his martini-swilling, shorty-shorts-wearing boy toy boyfriend, a
hilarious, grown up Haley Joel Osment (The Sixth Sense). NORTH SEA TEXAS,
an arrestingly beautiful portrayal of a young boy's first love, from
Belgium.  UNITED IN ANGER, A HISTORY OF ACT UP, an inspiring
documentary about the birth and life of the AIDS activist movement, THE WISE
KIDS, a delicate exploration of the coming out and coming of age in the
bible belt, CLOUDBURST, a breezy and tender road movie starring Oscar
winners Olympia Dukakis and Brenda Fricker as a lesbian couple who hit the
highway to get married. LOVE OR WHATEVER, a romantic comedy following
Corey as his well planned life falls apart and he leans on his quirky lesbian
sister for guidance.  THE COVER, a short, by our local boy wonder:
Anthony Paull, will precede SASSY PANTS.

The Fabulous IFF counts Watermark
Media, Planned Parenthood of Southwest and Central Florida, Janice & John
Shelton and RCMoore Construction among its very wonderful sponsors. The
complete list of sponsors is featured on the Fabulous IFF web site, www.fabulousiff.com.
