Here, Queer, and On TV (2026)
Before YouTube, Lavender Lounge lit up public access TV with a ’90s queer and trans dance party and groundbreaking show, capturing San Francisco’s first Dyke March and the first official Pride video. Thirty years later, creator Mark Kliem brings rare footage to light, reuniting the original crew with younger generations when queer history is again under attack.
Directors: Cassandra Herrman, Kelly Whalen.
