Sport has been a straight man’s club since the first official wrestling match. That’s changing as one by one, recognizable athletes come out on the grand stage of professional and Olympic sports. While these athletes are inspirational, what about the extraordinary transformations and more accessible achievements of everyday LGBT athletes? This film will spotlight an underexposed creative and cultural phenomenon – LGBT athletes discovering identity, community, family and even careers - within grassroots groups all dedicated to the sport of running.
Published 40 years ago, Patricia Nell Warren’s The Front Runner tells the tragic tale of a gay Olympian who struggles for public acceptance of his sexuality. Her work inspired a generation of LGBT runners to bust stereotypes, create social frameworks for belonging, and make their sport a unifying force.
Today there are independent Front Runners groups in cities around the world. This film will focus on the runners themselves and their amazing stories of realization and transformation. They are a microcosm of the massive change going on in our society, as LGBT becomes a subset of the mainstream one step at a time.

to be released in June 2015 pending success of funding through Kickstarter.

29 July 2010: the German city of Cologne is facing a miracle. More than 10.000 athletes from over 70 countries are gathered in town to take part in the biggest sports and cultural festival in the world: the Gay Games. The motto is “Be part of it!” and people from all ages and sexualities have answered the call. For a whole week lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and straight people compete and party with each other, showing the globe how healthy and fun inclusion can be.
Queer Comrades, China's only long-running non-profit LGBT webcast, was the only Mainland Chinese media there, and we had a blast covering the event. We cheered for our favourite participants, we goggled at spectacular sports performances, we were astounded by the gay atmosphere all around and we managed to capture all of the most fabulous moments for you to see.
