As this year's films often show, gay and lesbian lives, loves and
families come in all shapes and sizes. For those of us who have children
or spend time with them, whether theyíre our own sons and daughters, our
nieces and nephews, or simply a good friend who happens to be young, it's
nice to know which programs at the Miami Gay and Lesbian Film Festival
might be appropriate to bring them to. So here are some suggestions.
A large number of the other films at the Festival (too many to list here)
would also be great for most teenage audiences, so please feel free to
call the office at 305-534-9924 if you have any doubts about a film's content
or interest level for younger viewers. Educating the next generation
is something we are all a part of.
