FIRE !! It's your life!

FIRE !! 2018 FIRE !! It's your life!

The 23ª International Exhibition of Gay and Lesbian Cinema FIRE has been inaugurated in Barcelona! of the Casal Lambda dedicated this year to the stage of childhood and adolescence

GAYLES.TV.- Everything in the opening ceremony of the 23rd edition of FIRE !! breathed freshness, joy, color and joie de vivre: the poster, the trailer of this 2018 edition, the slogan "It's your life", but above all the desire, the atmosphere, the speech of absolute respect when addressing the central theme of this year, childhood. Because while it is true that childhood for LGTBI people is a stage that is not usually easy, it is also true that it is about that magical moment in which "everything is to be done and everything is possible" as I wrote Miquel Martí i Pol.

There are three obstacles to overcome in this period: the acceptance of one's own difference, the task of seeking that acceptance in the most immediate circle that is the family and the usual rejection in the school environment. But the vision of FIRE !! it is neither defeatist nor torn, it is a hymn to hope. Emilio Ruiz, until recently president of Couple Lambda writes: "We approach childhood, adolescence and youth from a respectful, attentive, sensitive and tender look. And we want to do it positively. It's your life! A declaration of intentions. Joy to live, to enjoy every moment, to love whoever you want, to do what you want, to be what you want to be ". There is no space in this gaze for silence, for concealment, or guilt, because it is a clean, bright, supportive, refuge,, and respectful gaze.

A great edition that was inaugurated with the projection of "Love, Cecil", a documentary directed by Lisa Immordino Vreeland which is an exhaustive journey through the life of Cecil Beaton, photographer, designer, writer, in short one of the most versatile and unclassifiable geniuses of the XNUMXth century. An excellent starting gun to give way to an extensive and very careful selection of films that you will find on the official website of the festival www.mostrafire.com and in the trailer that we leave then and of course, with what is already an annual tradition, the expected festival spot.

We want it to be again Emilio Ruiz who closes with his words of hope this article: "Let's never stop celebrating life. Let's get up, with pride. Celebrate life, show the joy of living and be genuine, be what we want to be, be authentic and remember the words of Antonia San Juan in "All about my mother": "It costs a lot to be authentic ... and one is more authentic, when more resembles what she dreamed of being herself ".

Live life, live life!
