Outfest looked a little different this past weekend.

Instead of the usual 11-day window over the summer, the festivities ran for four days from July 23-26, with screenings and conversations held at the Los Angeles LGBT Center’s Renberg Theatre in Hollywood. The program featured over 30 films and shorts, headlined by Gregg Araki’s “I Want Your Sex,” Brydie O’Connor’s “Barbara Forever” and Alexandria Stapleton’s “The Brittney Griner Story.”
