As its acknowledgment of Gay Pride Month, Sundance Channel is dedicating its weekly "DocDay" premieres to films centered on queer lives and issues. Their subjects are sometimes fun, sometimes quite serious, but always meaty and interesting. The variety of perspectives and the many examples of queer history and struggle in these films make for a great reminder of one of the principal concepts of queer visibility, activism and pride: that the political and the personal frequently intersect and are never very far away from each other.
