Oliver (filmmaker Matt Campanella, pictured right) has a college education, but has decided to train for a career as a professional dom. He gets a surprise client: Dad, and then has to cover when the supervisor comes to check on them. Cute, well executed, fun. Highly recommended.

Young Black transwoman Dreya (played by Nyala Moon, How Not to Date While Trans [watch on YouTube!] in the “Oh, You Pretty Things” shorts program, Frameline46) has a steamy virtual thing going with a guy who wants to get together IRL, but Dreya hasn’t kept up with dilating since her bottom surgery 4 years ago (hooray for pandemic isolation), so she’s a bit anxious, trying to make up for lost time so she can have that non-virtual connection. It’s a light-hearted take, with some serious issues sprinkled in the mix, expressing a joie de vivre that will draw you along for the ride. With two wonderful shorts to her credit, I can’t wait to see what Nyala Moon does next. (Please, please make a feature film!) Definitely a MUST SEE, even if you skip most of the other shorts in this program.

Actual polyamorous humans talk about the joys and the challenges of being poly. The audio interviews are the backdrop to puppet mice, giving the audience something to look at while preserving the anonymity of the interviewees. Cute, well done, insightful. Highly recommended.
Six-year-old Lorena sits in the waiting room for her dentist, sits in the waiting room while her mother sees the oncologist, sits in the waiting room for who knows what, and talks to her imaginary friend Boo, the ghost of a Civil War soldier. In the meantime, puberty begins, with confusion about her place in the world and connection to (actual living) people. Cute, sweet, well executed. Highly recommended.
