Sex Positive is about Richard Berkowitz, a gay S/M hustler turned AIDS activist, directed by Daryl Wein.

Bi the Way explores the changing sexual landscape of the country, with a look into scientific research and social opinions on bisexuality. Directors Brittany Blockham and Josephine Decker follow five teens and 20-somethings who act as the faces of their generation.
The Amazing Truth About Queen Raquela is about a transsexual from the Philippines going after her dreams of living in Paris. To make the trek from Cebu City to the City of Lights, Raquela abandons prostitution and turns to the more lucrative online porn, meeting a wide range of people along the way.
