Philly is known as The City of Brotherly Love (from the Greek: philos "loving" and adelphos "brother"), so where better for SOCKET to have it's World Premiere screening? The Philadelphia International Gay & Lesbian Film Festival in Philadelphia, PA! Founded in 1995, the event is the third largest of its kind in the US, and the largest on the East Coast. It takes place every year for two weeks in July and shows as many as 200 films. SOCKET will screen twice: Saturday, July 14 @ 9:30PM @ The Wilma Theater and Sunday, July 15 @ 5:00 @ The Arts Bank. There is a juried competition for best features and shorts (gay male and lesbian) as well as audience awards, selected by the viewers. The festival runs July 12-24. We at Velvet Candy Entertainment and our co-Socketeers at Dark Blue Films are so proud to be chosen to be part of such a prestigious and exciting event. We will have more news about the Film Festival and the SOCKET premiere shortly.
