    The Pikes Peak Lavender Film Festival has been bringing quality international lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender films to Colorado Springs for 12 years. Come to enjoy the festivities!

    Leave it on the Floor sizzles in dance and song. It is a supersized musical, reminiscent of Paris is Burning, Rent and Dreamgirls that features their newly created family of ?erce performers, come together to win a trophy in the Ball competition. Brad is kicked out of his house for being gay. He joins the dance troupe of the House of Eminence and everyone comes together to help him learn the spins, dips and hands. Attractions develop and a love triangle threatens to destroy all they’ve built. Director Sheldon Larry deftly weaves original songs with dances choreographed by Frank Gaston, Jr. who worked on Beyoncé Knowles and Michael Jackson’s dance moves. You will
    be carried away with some of the catchiest songs and dances. Sheldon Larry, director, Glenn Gaylord, writer and producer and Barbi?Q, a star from the movie, will join us for a conversation. Glenn came to PPLFF the third year as a great future ?lmmaker with his short ?lm, Lost Cause, a hit that year. He is back with our Opening Feature Film. Glenn, Sheldon and Barbi?Q will be at our festival all weekend.
