Weird America Film Festival
I love being in the Bay Area this time of year because all the film festivals that take place one after another, the Indie Fest is going on right now as will the Black Film Festival soon. There's another one that's happening right now that I hadn't heard about: the Weird America Film Festival.
According to the website, "This six-part series peruses people with uncommon occupations, strange pastimes, and curious obsessions. You'll meet, among others, street toughs who don gaudy masks and wrestle just for the glory; a well-groomed stable of individuals who find their mane pleasure in ponyplay; wily Okies who troll for catfish with nothing but their hands for bait; and a ninety-two-year-old gal who knows everything about nuts, both the fruit and the human variety. All these folks are united by their healthy exercise of eccentricity. Weird America is not so much about a country as it is about a state—a state of mind."
