Q Cinema turns to 'Plan B' with a movie featuring a South American flair in a special one-night-only presentation of the new import.

Fort Worth's Gay & International Film Festival screens the movie March 24, 8 p.m. at the Four Day Weekend Theater, 312 Houston Street downtown.

Tickets are $10 and are available online at qcinema.org.

The film, 103 minutes long, is presented through donations from the North Texas Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual/Transgender (GLBT) Chamber of Commerce, the Dallas Voice, Richard Michael & Mike Williams, Four Day Weekend, and Wolfe Releasing. (Source: Todd Camp).

"Argentine director Marco Berger repurposes the conventions of a somewhat Shakespearan-styled comedy in his clever, witty, and poetic feature film debut," states a press release. "'Bruno' is dumped by his girlfriend; behind a calm, indifferent expression, his mind plans a cold, sweet vengeance."

The female character, a modern girl, keeps on seeing him once in a while, but has another boyfriend, "Pablo."

"'Bruno' becomes 'Pablo's' friend, with the idea of eroding the couple, maybe introducing his rival to another woman," press materials state. "But, along the way, the possibility of a plan B arises, a more effective one, which will put his own sexuality into question."

Featured in this year's Palm Beach International Film Festival, "Plan B" shows the lengths Bruno will go to by hook or crook to win his girl back.

The film is in Spanish with English subtitles.

In unrelated event news, "Fort Worth Sings for Haiti" takes place March 27 at Magnolia Green Park(1100 Lipscomb) in the town's historic southside from noon to 10 p.m. The concert follows the 12th Annual "Joe's Run" benefitting The Samaritan House.

Admission to the show is free, however all proceeds from merchandise, donations, vendor sales, and sponsorships will be donated to assist the medical response efforts of Doctors Without Borders, according to the Fort Worth Business Press.

"For people grief-stricken by the Haiti earthquake, who don't think that donating ten dollars to the Red Cross is enough, and who love local music, a new unofficial nonprofit group might be able to offer some solace," stated the Fort Worth Weekly Feb 26. "The hope is that at least a dozen bands, all Fort Worth-local, will perform."
