The Lesbian and Gay Film Festival Hamburg and Bildwechsel present:
The best of ‘TOO QUEER FOR MTV’
Turning their backs on the notion of mass-appeal and profiting from the accessibility to technology and new broadcast channels, a large and diverse group of people are producing music-videos with a stance that reminds us of what punk was once all about: the do-it-yourself attitude. This is a selection of witty, daring, trashy, queer video-clips you will not be seeing on MTV anytime soon.
date: January 21st, 2008
beginning: 8pm
venue: Buttclub, Hafenstr.126, Hamburg
