Sissy is a “Homosexual’s Film Quarterly” published by a German film distribution company called “Edition Salzgeber” that is releasing a lot of great stuff in the field of the New Queer Cinema. This is why the mag (that can be read and downloaded for free here) is much more than just an advertising paper but offers a clever, sophisticated view on new movie releases  (not only via Salzgeber) and the history of gay/ queer cinema.  The only problem is that you only get it in German language. But I’ll keep you posted if I find nice something nice in it that is worth to be shared. And to start with that straight away: here’s the very minimalst trailer of an Italian independent movie by a director called Mirko Locatelli called “The first day of winter”. The movie takes place at a public swimming pool and tells the story of a young guy who is a swimmer and who is bullied by the other guys until he finds a way to turn his relationship to the others upside down and becomes the one in charge (read more about it here). In Germany the movie has been released on DVD two weeks ago, I hopw I’ll get a chance to see it soon.
