I opened my email this morning, and got this note from Tony Comstock:

Some bad news here I’m afraid.

I just found out that while I slept, the Australian Office of Film and Literature Classification has informed the Melbourne Underground Film Festival that they will not be given exemptions for about a half-dozen films, including ASHLEY AND KISHA: FINDING THE RIGHT FIT.

Last year our film DAMON AND HUNTER: DOING IT TOGETHER had it’s world premiere at MUFF, and went on to be named Best Documentary. From there it was invited to show at two screenings at QueerDOC Gay and Lesbian Film Documentary Film Festival in Sydney, but the festival was threatened by the OFLC with both a fine and jail time, and QueerDOC elected not to show our film.

More news when I have more news.
