Sex Is...

Marcie, a suburban housewife, dissatisfied with her bouffant-and-barbecue lifestyle, is hot on the trail of an old high school chum, Susan Jane. When she reconnects with her, Marcie stumbles into the wild and wacky world of San Francisco bohemia.

Mark Huestis' low-budget, shot-on-video feature casts Doug Self as Steven, a young San Francisco man whose lover Victor has just died of AIDS. Following Victor's dying wishes to have his ashes scattered in Maui, Steven travels to the Hawaii-based New Age community founded by Victor's former partner Robert (Emerald Starr). Despite an edgy relationship with Robert, who never visited Victor in his final months, Steven finds romance with the camp gardener Peter (Joe Tolbe), a matter complicated by the fact that Steven has never undergone an HIV test. Robert admits that he, too, has never had an AIDS test--his fear of death is the reason why he built his closed-off island community. After hearing of another friend's AIDS-related death, Steven leaves Peter behind to return to California

An elegiac memory piece on the persecution of gays in Nazi Germany.

A campy abbreviated remake of Sunset Boulevard.

With vintage footage, interviews, and Marc Huestis' own energy and humor at the center, Impresario is an homage to a San Francisco icon and one of the founders of Frameline.
