THE LOST COAST
directed by Gabriel Fleming

High school friends reunite for Halloween in San Francisco: Mark, who is now gay, and Jasper, who is straight and soon to be married, are forced to confront their unspoken sexual history in this haunting, spare look at the subtleties of sexuality, friendship, and loneliness.

SEX POSITIVE
directed by Daryl Wein

A documentary look at the life of Richard Berkowitz, a revolutionary gay S&M hustler turned AIDS activist in the 1980s, whose incomparable contribution to the invention of safe sex has never been aptly credited.  Berkowitz emerged from the epicenter of the epidemic demanding a solution to the problem long before those both within and outside of the gay community would take heed.  However, it was not Berkowitz's voice alone that sparked contention.  (SXSW note: Berkowitz is scheduled to attend the premiere.)
