The Kiss
The Kiss is the story of Wilfred Funai, a quiet, unassuming office worker whose defence from the hostile treatment from co-workers is to hide inside a small, regimented world. One day, he witnesses an event where he will either remain isolated or respond to a crisis, perhaps even at risk to himself. Either choice will change his life forever.Philip Kan Gotanda 13 min. 1992 USAFounded in 1977, Frameline is the nation's only nonprofit organization solely dedicated to the funding, exhibition, distribution and promotion of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender media arts.
