Tru Loved

SUNDAY, JULY 20, 9:30 PM
U.S.A.—99 minutes
Written and directed by Stewart Wade.



With Najarra Townsend, Jake Abel, Matthew Thompson, Alexandra Paul, Cynda Williams, Bruce Vilanch, Nichelle Nichols, Jasmine Guy, Alec Mapa and Jane Lynch.

Tru, a 16-year-old high school student from San Francisco, is uprooted from her gay-friendly home by her lesbian moms and moved away—not only from San Fran but from her gay dads—to a new, decidedly more conservative neighborhood in suburban Southern California. Her non-traditional family makes her a bit of an outsider—until the high school football hero and big man on campus takes a liking to her. A traditional boy meets girl love story…or is it? Produced by Antonio Brown and Stewart Wade. Director of Photography: Howard Wexler.

 

Accompanying Short:

  For a Few Marbles More

In Dutch with subtitles.
Written and directed by Jelmar Hufen.

Four ten-year-olds are kicked out of their favorite playground by two aggressive drunkards. When they realize their parents are not going to help them, there’s only one solution. They have to find a way to get the toughest boy in the neighborhood involved.
