Filmmakers Attending
Co-Director: Jesse Finley Reed
ALL MAN: The International Male Story journeys across three decades of the catalog’s unlikely but lasting impact on fashion, masculinity, and sexuality in America. Gene Burkard, a once-closeted Midwesterner and GI, found freedom in San Diego, where he transformed men’s fashion into something cosmopolitan, carefree and trend-setting. International Male reached gay and straight customers alike as it redefined images of masculinity in American culture, generating revenue and circulation in the millions.

About Cinema Diverse: The Palm Springs LGBTQ+ Film Festival:  Cinema Diverse was established by the Palm Springs Cultural Center in 2008, and is dedicated to advancing and further strengthening our diverse gay community by presenting a world-class film festival featuring lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender cinema from around the world.

We do this because we believe that LGBTQ+ Filmmakers, and the stories they tell through the movies they make, empower our community, advance our efforts to gain equal rights, and often introduce us to a world that has heretofore never known us.

We also believe LGBTQ+ films and LGBTQ+ film festivals are critical to our local community, and to the world community, because they tell stories that remind us of where we came from, who we are, and who we can be. They tell stories that not only inform and transform those within our community, but also have the power to change the lives and attitudes of people outside our community.
