Centerpiece Screening
GATHERING SWEETNESS

Saturday, June 10, 2023
8 pm
TRT: 60 minutes

Clusters of intimacy and loving connection, from abundant queer Black love intertwined with grief, to a celestial romance and Latinx and South Asian women coming of age, the vibrant fruiting bodies of these films exude queer joy and community.

Doors open at 7:30pm.

Between kisses, two Black women laugh together in a loving embrace. One woman wears blue scrubs, while her partner wears a denim shirt and a colorful printed head wrap.
