Friday, February 29th - 7:00 pm
Director Scott Bloom and producer Larry Diamond will be joining us for a Q&A discussion. Screening sponsored by HX!
New York Premiere!
CALL ME TROY
Directed by Scott Bloom, 2007, USA, 100 minutes.
"My private parts are my own and what I want to do with them is my business and not the law's" - Reverend Troy Perry
Profiling the life and times of one of the gay community's most visible and tenacious advocates for change, Rev. Troy Perry, CALL ME TROY is a truly inspirational story about a remarkable individual whose activism was decades ahead of its time. Perhaps best known as the founder of the Metropolitan Community Church - the first church to recognize the spiritual needs of the gay community - Perry has long been on the front lines in leading the charge for equality and protections for all. And, a proud leatherman, he's also been an unwavering proponent for the God-given right to embrace and explore our sexuality - just exactly as we are.

Filmmakers Robin Franzi and Charles Lum will be on hand for a Q&A after the screening.
SUSAN FOR NOW
Directed by Robin Franzi, 2007, USA, 54 minutes.
A first-person account of a woman reclaiming her sexual freedom after a ten-year period of self-imposed celibacy, SUSAN FOR NOW follows the filmmaker's personal quest through the sex-positive community in Seattle and into the world of sadomasochism. A vivid and unflinching exploration, the film also provides insights into the hearts and minds of articulate and sincere individuals from every walk of life, and how they practice BDSM in a consensual and responsible manner.

Among her adventures in search of devotion, Catherine is presented first as a novitiate nun subject to the attentions of a lecherous priest and a Mother Superior dominatrix, then locked away in the Blackheart Castle, sacrifice at dawn intended to be her fate and, finally, the suburban wife of a successful plastic surgeon (or is he?), undergoing a series of ordeals that will prove her selfless sublimation to his desire. Plays with BREED.
