DVD Alert: Itty Bitty Titty Committee

I love that name and I love the women who run Power Up the organization/production company behind Itty Bitty Titty Committee. They are the only LGBT non-profit film company. According to the women at Power Up money to make LGBT films in the US is being cut while it is increasing overseas. So, they've taken on the issue and are producing their own films. Itty Bitty Titty Committee is their latest film, and after playing the film fest circuit and markets across the US, it is now coming to DVD.

Directed by Jamie Babbitt (But I'm a Cheerleader) the film tells the story of a young Latina woman (Melonie Davis) who works in an LA area plastic surgeon's office who falls in with an underground radical group of women - CiA - Clits in Action. They are a hilarious group of rabid feminists who just are sick and tired of seeing women objectified on a daily basis and try to come up with actions to get their point across. Sometimes the film tries too hard and hits the audience over the head with the feminist rhetoric, but it's a fun movie, has great music, and I loved the politics. This is a lesbian film for Gen Y just like Go Fish was the lesbian film for Gen X.
