Over 100 people attended the screenings of three films made during Gay Games VIII, including Françoise Romand's Gais Gay Games. The directors were present for a panel discussion with spectators following the screenings.

Many volunteers and athletes took advantage of the presence of videographer and director Yves Sélier to record messages for the "It Gets Better" project.
