Gay Chorus Deep South

To confront a resurgence of faith-based anti-LGBTQ laws brought about in the Trump era, Conductor Tim Seelig leads 300 singers of the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus on a bus tour of the deep south, showcasing fine music, confronting political and religious intolerance, and challenging his own troubled past with the church. Joined by the Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir, they bring a message of music, love, and acceptance to communities often on the frontlines against intolerance.

GAY CHORUS DEEP SOUTH premiered at the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival and WON the “Audience Award” for Best Documentary film.

“Finders Keepers – A stranger than fiction documentary” is a feature documentary directed by Bryan Carberry and Clay Tweel produced by the makers of “King of Kong – A Fist Full of Quarters” and Oscar winning “Undefeated“.

Finders Keepers was a official selection at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival
