of web series will be shared with Cinema<br />

Diverse by offering over 10 hand-picked episodes<br />

<strong>for</strong>m the best of the web.<strong>The</strong> Sunday program is a<br />

smorgasbord of LGBT interests and we’ve managed<br />

<strong>to</strong> tie in some LGBT musical series as well. “Dyke<br />

Central” offers a slice of life among Oakland lesbians<br />

and their friends while “Her S<strong>to</strong>ry” and “Brothers”<br />

are wonderful trans series that shows comradery,<br />

prejudice and acceptance. “Coffee Shop Chronicles”<br />

runs the gamut of LGBT <strong>to</strong>pics and our featured episode<br />

is a definite standout. Soap operas have found<br />

a new life on the web and “Venice” brings <strong>to</strong>gether<br />

many of TV superstars, telling LGBT s<strong>to</strong>ries without<br />

network censorship. <strong>Gay</strong> youth and coming out is<br />

showcased in “Throwaways.” Acceptance is set <strong>to</strong><br />

music with high school “<strong>The</strong> Hinderlands.” “Break”<br />

and “City of Dreams” round out other musical web<br />

adventures while “Bi” has all bases covered, following<br />

the dating life of an appealing young man and his<br />

gay, straight and bi friends. This WebOUT segment<br />

also includes the world premiere of the rio<strong>to</strong>us comedy<br />
