‘Tell’ Comes to NewFest
Tell, a new documentary from filmmaker Tom Murray, is coming to NewFest, the 2007 New York Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Film Festival. Tell will screen on Tuesday, June 5, at the AMC Loews 34th Street Theatre.
From the NewFest site:
Documentarian Tom Murray (the maker of last year’s Almost Myself) returns to NewFest with another timely film exploring the US military’s shameful “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. As in his previous films, Murray puts a human face to the issue by interviewing a diverse range of LGBT would-be soldiers and veterans, as well as representatives from organizations fighting for an end to “don’t ask, don’t tell,” and for equal treatment and respect to those who have already proudly served. With no real end in sight to the US’s current military involvement abroad, Tell adds to the debate by questioning why willing and able potential recruits are kept from serving based on institutionalized discriminatory practices.
