    Jamal Sims, Director of WHEN THE BEAT DROPS - Premiering on Logo at 8p on 8/9

    We're launching our 3rd season with another incredible guest! Jamal Sims is a professional choreographer and a first-time director. We got to talk with him about his film, WHEN THE BEAT DROPS, which premieres on Logo Network tomorrow (8/9) at 8 pm! WHEN THE BEAT DROPS follows a crew of gay African-American men as they pioneer the Southern-rooted underground dance scene known as “bucking.” Together with his crew of fellow gay African-American men, Anthony Davis, a heavy-set, Atlanta-born kid with a love of dance, helped grow bucking into a national movement, complete with fierce competitions. In the process, Davis created a haven for a generation of displaced black gay men. It was an amazing conversation and we're excited for you to listen! Watch the trailer for WHEN THE BEAT Drops using the link below and don't forget to tune in tomorrow at 8 pm! www.logotv.com/video-clips/a6qz4k/logo-documentary-films-go-behind-the-movement-when-the-beat-drops For more information about Level Ground, the organization who makes this podcast possible, or to make a donation to ensure programming like this continues, visit www.onlevelground.org.

  2. Outfest 2018 - MAN MADE w/ dir. T Cooper

    Outfest 2018 - MAN MADE w/ dir. T Cooper

    As a part of our ongoing coverage of Outfest, we got to have a great conversation with MAN MADE director, T Cooper. His film traces the varied lives of four transgender men as they prepare to step on stage at the only all-trans bodybuilding competition in the world. It follows their emotional and physical journeys as they navigate lives as the men they are, despite very real risks inherent in the current social and political climate. For the men of MAN MADE, it's not about winning—it's about being seen. We absolutely LOVED this film and if you are free today or tomorrow go see it at Outfest! You can catch MAN MADE today at 12p at the DGA or tomorrow at 4:15p at the Regal LA Live. It's not one you're going to want to miss!

    Outfest 2018- GAME GIRLS w/ dir. Alina Skrzeszewska

    We sat down in the heart of the festival for another amazing conversation - this time with Game Girls director Alina Skrzeszewska. Her film is a heartwrenching look at life on skid row, how community is held together by shared experiences of poverty and the barriers to climbing out of a life on the streets. It's one of our favorites from this year's festival and you can see it today at 9:30pm at the DGA as a part of Outfest!
