Utah's film festival for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender topics will finish dancing — with a documentary about the men behind Madonna on her controversial 1990 "Blonde Ambition" tour.

The Utah premiere of the documentary "Strike a Pose" will be the closing-night film for the 13th annual Damn These Heels LGBT Film Festival, set for July 15-17 at the Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center, Salt Lake City.

The Belgian-Dutch production, directed by Ester Gould and Reijer Zwaan, profiles the seven dancers — six gay, one straight — who performed with Madonna on the "Blonde Ambition" tour (and the concert film "Truth or Dare"), and how the experience changed their lives.

The Utah Film Center, which organizes the festival, on Wednesday also announced four more titles, all dramatic films, that will screen at Damn These Heels.

"These early selections are representative of the diversity and quality of films that our programming committee is considering for the program that is shaping up to be the best yet," said Patrick Hubley, the Utah Film Center's artistic director. The rest of the slate will be announced in June.

Here are the four dramatic films announced Wednesday:

• "AWOL" (U.S.), directed by Deb Shoval and written by Karolina Waclawiak and Shoval, tells of an aimless young woman (Lola Kirke) who enlists in the Army, but before deployment falls in love with a married woman (Breeda Wool).

• "Closet Monster" (Canada), written and directed by Stephen Dunn, a twist on the coming-of-age drama, starring Connor Jessup ("Falling Skies") as a teen who aspires to be a special-effects makeup artist — and struggles with his sexual identity and fear of his macho father (Aaron Abrams). Also starring Isabella Rossellini.

• "From Afar (Desde Allá)" (Venezuela/Mexico), written and directed by Lorenzo Vigas, about a middle-aged Caracas man (Alfredo Castro) who lures young men to his home to watch them — and what happens after a violent first meeting with one 17-year-old kid (Luis Silva).

• "Hunky Dory" (U.S.), directed by Michael Curtis Johnson and written by Johnson and Tomas Pais, who stars as Sidney, a glam-rock drag queen who must reassess his life when his ex drops off their 11-year-old son (Edouard Holdener) for a week.
