Returning for a fifth exciting year, Other Worlds Austin, one of the premier SciFi Film Festivals in the US, features some of the best and unheralded genre films. Beginning on Thursday December 6 at Flix Brewhouse, the four day event includes 20 full length films, a slew of shorts, and a screenwriting workshop. Not terribly surprising to anyone who regularly follows my writings, I’ll be at there.
Here’s what to expect at Other Worlds Austin 2018.

Ten years after the most peaceful revolution in United States history, a progressive dystopia exists where minorities, gay rights organizations, and feminists should be further along than they are. Governmental preference and violence has forced these groups to take the revolution farther than they ever imagined. An indispensable, radical, and strangely timely manifesto on racism, sexism, and heteronormative culture in an alternative United States socialist democracy.
