Stand Back
USA  1995, 30 min

In 1995 Jimmy Caiola was just a struggling local gay filmmaker trying to make his cinematic mark. Ffifteen years later he is now co-owner of Philly's Beau Monde creperie/bar and the club L'Etage. In celebration of our 15th Anniversary we are re-screening Stand Back, a film which premiered at our first festival. It is a touching exploration on queer love and commitment and is told through a series of flashbacks in which a young man writes a letter to his former lover about his search for a meaningful relationship.
