Фильмы

¡Qué OjOnes!
Himself
Luis Raúl takes over the arena stage for his final stand-up show, recorded live at Puerto Rico's renowned José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan on September 14, 2013. Many jokes include being the first stand-up comedian to perform at the venue and his comparative to other artist's demands when visiting a venue opposed to his demands, to the importance of one's eyes (theme of the show), traditional Puerto Rican remedies, his own mother, television infomercials, marijuana, his fiscal problems with past-due back taxes, and, of course, sex. Marking his last unplanned curtain call in his career, "Qué OJOnes" ("What BIG EYEs!") was brought to the big screen as an posthumous homage to one of Luis Raúl's final wishes before his death.

Boys Life 3
Autograph Seeker (segment "Inside Out")
Jason Gould satirizes coming out in Hollywood in Inside Out, starring Alexis Arquette and papa Elliot Gould. Lane Janger's Just One Time was a festival favorite recently expanded into a feature film that turns the tables on a groom-to-be and his fantasies of sex with two women. Bradley Rust Gray's Hitch follows two attractive young guys on a dizzying road trip that leads them toward sexual self-discovery. David Fournier's Majorettes in Space is a witty French spoof of post-modern sex, romance, relationships, the Pope and baton-twirling majorettes. And, Gregory Cooke's $30 is the bittersweet story of a closeted teen presented with a young prostitute on his 16th birthday.
Mambo Café

Inside Out
Autograph Seeker
A film that shows how "hard" it is to be son of celebrities.
Семья Перес
News Photographer
В 1980 году Кастро отпустил с Кубы политических заключенных и просто уголовников в Америку. Среди добравшихся до Майами и герои этой картины. Хуан Перес отсидел 20 лет за то, что сжег свою плантацию сахарного тростника, не желая, чтобы она досталась коммунистам. Разбитной красавице Дорри Перес просто надоело работать и она хочет рок-н-ролла и Джона Уэйна. Хуана все эти годы ждет жена Кармела с дочерью. Но сразу по приезде в долгожданную страну свободы и равных возможностей, эти люди убеждаются в том, что им никто не рад. Об их забавных и частенько горьких приключениях и рассказывается в этой картине, поставленной по роману Кристины Белл.
