Meanwhile, the queer-supportive Denver, Colorado-based GILL FOUNDATION launches a "born different" campaign online underscoring that point with a cute animated "mooing" puppy named Norman. They've also produced TV spots and have "Norman" banners decorating light poles throughout downtown COLORADO SPRINGS, home to what's been called the greatest concentration of fundamentalist Christian activism in the country. The Springs-based rightwing Christian empire FOCUS ON THE FAMILY has countered with an online barking dog campaign of its own ("because that's what dogs do"). KRCC-FM reporter ERIC WHITNEY hit the streets of Colorado Springs to gather a random sample of opinion about the dueling doggie campaigns [SHERI LUNN and TANYA KANE-PARRY anchor this report, written by GREG GORDON, and with thanks to CHRISTOPHER DAVID TRENTHAM for production assistance]. . . . . . . . 6:20 [www.borndifferent.com; www.no-moo-lies.com] SEGMENT #3 - "TWO" I.D. by writer/performance artist LUIS ALFARO and comic MONICA PALACIOS [:10] + Winner of both the Audience Award and the Dramatic Grand Prize at this year's Sundance Film Festival, "QUINCEAÑERA" is a reinvention of "kitchen sink" drama, fueled by the racial, class, and sexual tensions of a Latino neighborhood in transition. Magdalena (Emily Rios) is the daughter o f a Mexican-American family who runs a storefront church in the ECHO PARK enclave of Los Angeles. With her fifteenth birthday approaching, all she can think about is her boyfriend, her Quinceañera dress, and the Hummer Limo she hopes will carry her on her special day. But a few months before the celebration, Magdalena becomes pregnant. Forced out of her home, she moves in with great-great uncle Tomas (Chalo Gonzalez), an old man who makes his living selling champurrado (a Mexican hot drink) in the street. Already living with him is Carlos (Jesse Garcia), Magdalena's cousin, a tough cholo who was thrown out by his parents for being gay. The back house rental where Tomas has lived happily for many years is on a property recently purchased by an affluent white gay couple — pioneers of gentrification in the neighborhood. Worlds ineevitably collide.
