Thirteen Buttons to Heaven

Overview

A documentary that tells a remarkable story of George Mansour, one of the pre-eminent independent film bookers in the US history. He is - after all - the man who gave us John Waters, Sean Cunningham and Wes Craven. He is the man who for many years championed independent cinema, showing films we would never had a chance to see without him. He is also the founder of the prestigious Boston Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, fourth oldest in the country. The film chronicles his humble beginnings, early clashes with an antigay policies of the USA government, up to the time he became a scion of an independent film movement.
