The 22nd Fresno Reel Pride Film Festival is less than a month away. This year, the film festival runs from Wednesday, September 14th through Sunday, September 18th.
Reel Pride is the sixth oldest gay and lesbian film festival in America. Presented in the landmark historic Art Deco Tower Theatre and the intimate Starline Lounge in Fresno’s historic Tower District, Reel Pride has matured into one of Central California’s largest cultural events. Each year with five days and over fifty films, the film festival presents movies that can’t be found in your local multiplex and appearances by filmmakers and stars, signature events, receptions and parties.
It’s Central California’s most popular gay and lesbian event: Five days of films for everyone to enjoy… a premiere cultural event in central California attracting thousands of attendees to its five-day festival of international features, documentaries, and short films.
After looking over the films to be offered this year, I can honestly say that you’ll find it difficult to remember a year in Fresno Reel Pride history that will compare to the roster of films on tap for this year. It’s a varied and well chosen festival of entertainment.
Please visit the Fresno Reel Pride Website for all the details on this year’s monumental event.

Award-winning country music star Chely Wright had a secret that seemed impossible to reveal to her family, her friends, and her fans. Raised in a religious home and rising to fame in the homophobic country music industry, Chely prayed for years that her homosexuality would just go away. While her dreams of stardom came true, her reality could not be denied. In 2010, she began an arduous and carefully-mapped journey of coming out to the world. From Chely’s most intimate moments of confession to her very public appearances in the media, every touching and riveting moment is captured and crafted into a powerful and moving documentary.
