LGBTQ+ filmmakers and storytellers are expanding creative boundaries beyond traditional themes. New releases, for example, have at their core the healing power of music. Or political angles that appeal to broad audiences. Or down-to-earth day-to-day human issues, such as single-parenting, or navigating the gap between legal gains, like marriage equality, and broad social acceptance. BL has shifted from niche to mainstream, and new alliances are emerging as producers explore opportunities beyond their home markets. Jay Lin, founder/CEO of Portico Media & streaming platform GagaOOLala, looks at these and other the top programming and production trends.
