Damn These Heels!

The Village is proud to be a sponsor of the SLC Film Center's Damn These Heels Film Festival!

All ten screenings plus the panel are free and open to the public and the range of films is quite extraordinary. Here's some highlights:

THE WALKER
Everyone loves a good scandal! Carter Page (Woody Harrelson), an openly gay socialite who serves as confidant, companion, and card partner to some of the Washington DC's leading ladies, finds his morality tested when he is implicated in scandal, blackmail, and murder.

LOVE MY LIFE
Girl meets girl, comes out to family, and discovers others have secrets of their own in this charmingly offbeat, colorful and always upbeat love story from Japan.

EDGE OF HEAVEN
Germany’s entry to the 2007 Oscars. The picture is perfectly cast weaving the lives and emotional arcs of four Turks and two Germans through love and tragedy between (the beautiful countries of) Turkey and Germany.

A JIHAD FOR LOVE
