This short film program includes the following films:

Different

CONTENT WARNING:
I came out as transgender to my parents months ago. Before talking to them I was hopeful. I was terrified, but I was hopeful. Too much hopeful.

She

CONTENT WARNING:
"She" follows Tanesh Nutall, a 50-year old black transgender woman from Rahway, New Jersey. In February 2016, Tanesh was confronted by a city employee for using a women's restroom in Downtown San Francisco. Throughout the film, Tanesh seeks justice and make amends with family members that were not accepting of her sexuality. Not only does "She" discuss queer people in urban spaces but one's ability to accept themselves despite the odds against them.

In My Mother's Closet

CONTENT WARNING:
'In My Mother's Closet' explores the intersections of being brown, trans, and a woman. Through song, Adri reconciles the struggle of wanting to belt out her truth while not wanting to risk her relationship with her religious mother. With the support of her best friend, she perseveres.

Calamity

CONTENT WARNING:
A mother meets her son's girlfriend for the first time. She loses control...

Familia?

CONTENT WARNING:
A transwoman navigates life despite having a pesky neighborhood teenage boy in love with her, an insincere married lover, and a family that demands financial support.

The Real Thing

CONTENT WARNING:
A soldier returns home to meet his daughter, who transitioned while he was on tour.

Umbrella

CONTENT WARNING:
Umbrella tells the story of four transgender individuals across America who are fighting for rights and representation in a challenging and changing world. From serving their country’s military to building successful businesses and advocating for policy advancements, we see first hand their struggles for identity, validity and equality.

Pre-Drink

CONTENT WARNING:
Alexe is a young trans woman, and Carl a gay man. Best friends since forever, an evening spent together destabilizes Alexe, when both decide to have sex together for the first time.

A young queer/trans Latinx soars Home to connect with his grandma, his culture, and his identity through enchiladas. A Filipina mother and daughter duo take an uncertain journey toward acceptance in Introspection. For a young Muslim woman and her Christian friend, a benevolent Call To Prayer becomes a beacon for healing. A Love Letter to Queer Black Womyn vanquishes trauma on a journey toward healing. Bi/Black/Body/Bliss is a blazing emblem for plus-sized, queer, African/Indigenous ancestry often rejected by the world. My Femme Is A Reflection that is emblazoned with tender duty on an Asian survivor's spirit. A luminous trans Latina woman warrior reveals her bravery in La Entrevista. Running toward the feminine begins Breaking Frailty Myths and releases a Black woman's abilities. A Korean-American woman summons The Courage To Be and masterminds a plan to create her authentic self. A queer Black woman's comedic reclaiming of "crazy" and the perilous climb toward healing. Through nurturing Puerto Rican food, Marco Territorio and female masculinity come to the rescue. Three heroic queer women of color affirm mind, body, and spirit to Take Care of themselves. When the world is full of despair, the buoyant passion of Supa Gallo Pinto saves the day. While some are powerless against perception, Smokey emerges into a vision for a different world. Determined not to let anything get in her way, a daredevil queer Latina leaps over obstacles in Un Buen Dia. Queer and trans people of color transmute intimacy into Az‚àö‚à´car.
