Entre Nous ? (20.00)
Documentary, Chriss Lag
When you do a sport in an LGBT club, the first question asked is often: "but why do sport with just other gays and lesbians?". This film answers the question from the viewpoint of Marie and Etienne, and beyond an answer, provides a genuine shared experience of what LGBT sports means.

Be part of it : en être ! (20.50)
Documentary, Catherine Thiollière and Yves Bourgeay
This film mixes interview and sequences presenting various sports present at the Gay Games. The aim is to show an atmosphere, a state of mind, more than the results of the competitions. As the Games' slogan, "Be part of it!" suggests, we decided to be part of this event and show our viewpoint as filmmakers on this encounter.
