Whispering Corridors 3, Wishing Stairs: Movie Review

We here at LesbeAsian would highly recommend this movie. In fact we give it a 4/5 star rating.

Wishing Stairs is the third installment of a series of Whispering Corridors Korean horror films. All of the stories are set in an all girls high school, with various inclusions of the creepy supernatural, suspenseful unexpected, as well as the gore that is expected in a good thriller. The most awesome aspect of the series however, are the overt lesbian relationships throughout each film.

Los Angeles Asian Film Fest: Lesbian Anime Shorts

Source: AnimeNewsNetwork

The organizers of the 29th Annual Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival announced in April that it would screen 3 animated shorts by yuri manga author Sae Amamiya. The three shorts, "Ichinenme No Natsu Ni" ("One Day Next Summer"), "Mou Machiko-San Wa Fuyasanai" ("Stop Multiplying Machiko, Please"), and "Lesbian No Tameno Yakuni Tatanai" ("Useless 'How To Sex' Tips For Lesbians"), will be screened on Sunday, May 13, 2012 at GCV Cinemas in Long Beach, California.

The 2-6 minute shorts are based on Amamiya's own Plica-chan yuri manga. The four-panel strip tells the story of a young lesbian looking for love in modern Japan, and often features sexual humor. The manga was animated in 2006. "One Day Next Summer" follows Plica while she considers whether or not she is really in love with her girlfriend, and "Useless 'How To Sex' Tips For Lesbians" sees Plica attempting to rekindle the sexual connection between herself and her girlfriend, while "Stop Multiplying Machiko, Please" follows Machiko as she tries to find someone—or something—to have sex with her.

The Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival will run from Thursday, May 10 to Sunday, May 20th at TheDirector's Guild of America, GCV Cinemas, and The Art Theatre of Long Beach in California. Ticket prices are $12 general admission, $10 for students and seniors.

The Kingdom’s annual Pride originated with an evening party in 2004, but since 2009 has become a week-long celebration of diversity, respect and unity. Besides extending the length of the party, organisers Rainbow Community Kampuchea and Cambodian Pride Committee have broadened the focus to include greater participation of lesbians, and added film and art festivals as well as a Buddhist blessing ceremony. 7Days asked RoCK organiser Srorn Srun for a peek at what’s in store at this year’s event, which kicks off on May 12.

Is this the first ASEAN Pride week?

If the French have “Paris Je T’Aime” and Americans have “New York, I Love You,” Jakarta may soon have its own cinema-inspired motto exclaiming its love and celebrating its lovers.

“Sanubari Jakarta” (“Jakarta Deep Down”), a new movie featuring 10 short films by 10 different directors, opens today. The film portrays lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender relationships throughout Jakarta.

Produced by Fira Sofiana and actress Lola Amaria, “Sanubari Jakarta” is a collaboration between the Kresna Duta Foundation (a film organization), the Ardhanary Institute (supporters of diverse sexualities) and the Ford Foundation (social change advocates). Dimas Hary, from Kresna Duta, said “Sanubari Jakarta” championed the cause of the underrepresented and persecuted LGBT community in Jakarta.
