2012 CineSLAM Film Slam Seminars | Renee Sotile & Mary Jo Godges

This June, we will be holding our CineSLAM Film Slam Seminars on board the Celebrity Summit, as part of the 2012 Pride of the Ocean film festival program. Pride of the Ocean is a week-long film festival on the high seas! En route from NY to Bermuda, Pride of the Ocean screens some of the most important LGBT films of today. For more info on this fabulous film festival cruise, visit PrideoftheOcean.com.

We have some great representation from the west coast, with the dynamic team, Renee Sotile and Mary Jo Godges! How they were able to find the oldest lesbian in the word is a question you may ask when you meet them on board the Celebrity Summit.
