      Joe Gross Austin Chronicle It’s a lovely look at a community with a rich history and uncertain future. Mar 11, 2024 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film There is a sense of living in the moment but for the future, a deep connection with nature and a willingness to face whatever happens together. Rated: 4.5/5 Mar 26, 2024 Full Review Alan French Sunshine State Cineplex A House is Not a Disco serves as a midway point for queer generations to engage and talk about what their lives look like today. Rated: 7/10 Mar 18, 2024 Full Review Louisa Moore Screen Zealots A niche documentary that will play especially well with like-minded audiences, the film offers a terrific opportunity to learn about a vibrant gay community and the people who are breathing new life into it. Mar 15, 2024 Full Review Peter Martin ScreenAnarchy Strong opinions are expressed from time to time, but mostly this is what I'd call a 'mellow' documentary, a film for like-minded viewers to sink into, luxuriate in, and recommend to friends. Like a literal vacation in a sunny beach town. Mar 8, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
