P-TOWN LOW DOWN

My reviews of what I saw at the Provincetown International Film Festival are up on the Chlotrudis website. I managed to catch 13 films in four days, including five documentaries, two mockumentaries, and only one foreign language film.

PIFF isn't nearly as expansive a festival as Toronto (which I'm skipping this year), but that doesn't matter when half the incentive to go is P-Town itself. Still, in its eighth year, it's one of New England's better film festivals, and possibly the best place in the region to see queer-focused cinema. Two of my three favorites don't yet have theatrical distribution; oddly enough, the one that does is the least commercial offering I saw at the fest.
