Frameline joins other film festivals in the Bay Area to promote
screenings of LGBT films throughout the year. Upcoming Frameline
co-presented events:
Presented by Jewish Community Center East Bay
June 12, July 22, & September 18
Berkeley
This Summer, the JCC East Bay, in tandem with Frameline, the Jewish Mosaic and the Queer Cultural Center, kicks off a series of films about devout religious individuals—Jewish, Christian and Muslim—who are also LGBT. These three documentaries—Trembling Before G-d, For the Bible Tells Me So and A Jihad for Love—explore the intersections between faith and sexual orientation and present a dynamic array of spiritual individuals who engage with their faith and present intelligent challenges to dogmatic and persecuting interpretations of scripture. Each screening will be followed by a discussion featuring a panel of distinguished speakers from a range of faiths and backgrounds, including lay leaders and clergy.
A general admission ticket is $8 per screening, or you can purchase a
$15 pass for all three films. For more information on the screenings
including program descriptions and to buy tickets, please click here. All screenings take
place at the JCC East Bay at 1414 Walnut Street in Berkeley.
