Less than two months away, the Austin Gay & Lesbian International Film Festival (aGLIFF) is now hosting a trailer contest. Every year, aGLIFF solicits the talent of a select number of filmmakers to create unique trailers to be run before each screening. All styles and genres are acceptable, as long as they're relevant to this year's theme: Say What?
