Mr. Right
"The aspirations and romantic tensions of a group of London gay men come to life in this vibrant rom com set against a hip soundtrack. A soap star, a reality TV producer, a model, a rugby star and father, and their fag hag see old ties begin to fray over a summer that their friendships may not survive, in NewFest’s opening night gala event."
Join us below for a look at a few of NewFest's other entries ... and there's absolutely no truth to the assertion...

The 16th edition of the San Diego Latino Film Festival, which runs from March 12-22, is hosting the U.S. premiere of noted queer auteur Julián Hernández‘s third feature film Rabioso sol, rabioso cielo (Raging Sun, Raging Sky, 2009). Hernández will be in attendance.
Julián Hernández (born Mexico City, 1972) is a writer and director who possesses one of the most unique and uncompromising visions in contemporary cinema, a reputation he consolidated with his second feature film, El cielo dividido (Broken Sky, 2006), as well as a score of short and medium length films made since 1993. His highly anticipated new magnum opus Rabioso sol, rabioso cielo (Raging Sun, Raging Sky, 2009), with a running time of approximately three hours, is confirming his reputation. Rabioso sol is already reaping prizes at prestigious film festivals, winning the Teddy Award for queer cinema at this year’s Berlin International Film Festival, where its world premiere was celebrated February 11 of this year.
