Marga Gomez & Ali Mafi

— admin @ 9:30 am

If you don’t have plans tonite, I recommend: comedians Marga Gomez & Ali Mafi at 7 & 9pm at The Victoria Theatre (16th & Mission/actually Capp) for a funny year in review. Last year’s show kicked butt.
I’ll be at the 7pm show.

Frameline at The Center: Free Screenings for the Community
presents
“Desi’s Looking for A New Girl”
Thursday, January 8, 2009 at 7:30pm
San Francisco LGBT Community Center 1800 Market Street @ Octavia Please arrive early as seating is limited! Screening followed by Q&A discussion.
Co-presented by: Amor Sin Fronteras & Queer Latin@ Artists Collective.
The fifth season of Frameline at the Center opens with a festival favorite “Desi’s Looking for A New Girl” (Frameline24; 1998 Frameline Film & Video Completion Fund Recipient). Desi del Valle (Costa Brava) stars in this touching, realistic comedy set in the familiar sights and sounds of San Francisco’s Latino and Queer cultures.
J.T., a young Latina dyke, has three passions: her skateboard, comedienne Marga Gomez, and her friend Desi (not necessarily in that order). When Desi’s girlfriend dumps her for a younger woman, she journeys down breakup road with the requisite mourning and attempts at dating and recovery. Desi’s family and friends help and interfere every step of the way, setting her up on an array of blind disasters…dates… with the “perfect new girl.”
This debut feature from Mary Guzmán (Mind If I Call You Sir?) is an enjoyable and upbeat look at relationships, from friendly to familial - and everything in between. A fun, intelligent, and sometimes painfully true to life story, we get to tag along the emotional roller coaster of the dating world. As a brilliant diva once warned - hold on tight, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride.
Kindly arrive early as seating is limited. Don’t miss this FREE screening of this fantastic film and post-screening panel!
With generous support from Folsom Street Events, Frameline proudly presents admission-free screenings at the San Francisco Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Community Center at 7:30pm on the second Thursday of every month throughout 2009.
Please join us for the fourth season of Frameline at The Center, a provocative series of films and discussions focusing on social issues of particular relevance to the LGBT community. For more info please visit: <http://www.frameline.org >
