How many film releases do you think you would have completely missed if there was no marketing for it? Word of mouth can only go so far… That means no posters, no trailers, no social media, no interviews and definitely no junkets! We all love a good deep dive with the cast and crew to get us excited about a film’s release.

The Evolution of LGBTQ+ Films: From Brokeback Mountain to Love, Simon and My Old Ass
Written by MA Screenwriting student, Shaarath Vihari
When Brokeback Mountain premiered back in 2005, it was a watershed moment for LGBTQ+ representation in film. A tragic love story between two cowboys in 1960s Wyoming, the film depicted the brutal realities of repression and homophobia – showing queer love as something secretive, dangerous, and ultimately heartbreaking.

We recently had the pleasure of speaking with Divine Intervention’s Co-Creator and Director, Ravenna Tran (MA Filmmaking), and Writer, Rebecca Ozer (MA Screenwriting), where we discussed their journey from the initial partnership to completing the incredibly successful film. Divine Intervention was nominated for Best British Short at the 2024 Iris Prize LGBTQ+ Film Festival. It was subsequently broadcast on Film4 and is available to stream on Channel 4 for a year following the festival. Get watching!
