LGBT short film recommendations?

***

Dearest flist,

The LGBTIQ staff network at my uni, which I'm part of, is looking to arrange a couple of events for the LGBT History Month in February. One of these is a film night. We're hoping to show ~three short films so I'm looking for some recommendations. Could be fictional or documentary, but of relatively short length (~30min max). Ideally, we'd like to be representative so something with L, something with G, something with T focus, and much kudos if anyone can recommend anything with B focus (seriously hard to find...). Any recommendations highly appreciated as I'm really not au fait with LGBT cinema and neither is anyone else in the network it seems.

Thank you!

I haven't watched any of it, but apparently the Logo channel has a series called The Click List which features LGBT short films. Wikipedia has a list of the films they featured on the show, so maybe it'll be a good jumping off point? Here's the list.

I wanted to recommend the documentary (A)sexual as well, but it's 75 minutes long. /shrug

"If these walls could talk 2" consists of three lesbian short stories of about 30 minutes each.

All the films I know are too long - and I can't think of any short ones but what about the Husbands series? There are short episodes of that. I think most of them are now on YouTube but Google it anyway.
