FUN WITH A SAUSAGE by Ingride Wilhite 15 min.
When VICTIM was made in 1961, 90% of all black mail cases in the English courts were homosexual in origin. In this film Dirk Bogard plays an upper middle-class barrister who instead of giving in to the blackmailers' demands, cooperates with the police to track them down risking his marriage and career.

We won't pretend that this new phenomenon isn't contro versial, but sex videos made by lesbians for lesbian audiences have finally arrived. EROTIC IN NATURE premiered in Cotati on a weeknight last April to sold-out crowds. As far as visual entertainment is concerned, it has good production values, better than-average acting, and an effective sound track consisting of original music with limited voice-overs.

1:30 pm BLAUER DUNST (BLUE SMOKE) Federal Republic of Germany, 1983 Silent with music soundtrack A dark and moody story of petty thieves, gay lovers, lesbian lust, waterfront bars and murder. BLUE SMOKE is a nostalgic new super-8 feature from Berlin made in the tradition of Cocteau, Genet and the early German silents. With its stylishly grainy photography and claustropho bically intimate scale, director Keske's film may actually be more true to the atmosphere of Genet's "Querelle" than Fassbinder's overblown production
