ANGELA ROBINSON, Director of THE L WORD, D.E.B.S. and Disney's HERBIE FULLY LOADED will be flying in from the West Coast to be our very special guest filmmaker.

Webisodes from award-winning filmmakers Debra Wilson (First Take) and writer/comedian Rebecca Drysdale (The Time Traveling Lesbian) will be shown, along with winners entries of the Q-Me Con Women's Summit & AfterEllen.com Webisode Contest! AfterEllen's Sarah Warn will join us for a Q&A, moderated by NewFest Admin Dir, Kerry Weldon.

A very exciting collaborative team has come together -- OP/LYNX, NewFest, Punkmouse, Queer Black Cinemas & Afterellen.com -- in presenting this event as an official program of Q-Me Con 2008 (Queer Media & Entertainment Conference).

The event will start at 1pm with a Continental Brunch, which will include fresh bagels, muffins and pastries, a selection of fruit (and a few other healthy carb alternatives), as well as coffee, OJ and $5 Bloody Marys and Pomegranate Mimosas. Brunch is followed by the Screening at 2:30pm. Immediately following the screening, Kerry Weldon, Filmmaker and Administrative Director of NewFest, moderates a Q&A with the Filmmakers.

Admission for Brunch & Screening: $15 for Non-Members; $10 for OP/LYNX, NewFest, Queer Black Cinema Members & Q-Me Con Ticket Holders. Admission for Screening Only: $10 for Non-Members, $5 for OP/LYNX, NewFest, Queer Black Cinema Members & Q-Me Con Ticket Holders.
