Description

The 18th celebration of queer cinema at AAFF spotlights recent experimental films with LGBTQ themes, featuring reflections on being out while feeling the strong urge to reenter the closet; a performative exploration of gender; intersections of memory, identity, and queer desire; the oldest fun park in Beirut; an alternative mode of retrieving and disseminating a trans past; two young men who try to figure out their relationship; and trivial histories of the crumbling infrastructure of Memphis, Tennessee. Programmed by Sean Donovan.
