The SYRFILM organization that brings year-round programming to Central New York in collaboration with Art Rage Gallery will present a five-part series showcasing films from the eighth annual Syracuse International Film Festival. The series continues on Feb. 18 with a screening of “Finnster” by Thomas Korthals Altes (Netherlands) Fiction, 47 min., and “Androides” by María Pérez (Spain) Fiction, 15 min. Additional screenings will take place in March, April and May.
“Finnster”
What a shock when teenage Finn comes home from school and catches Dad wearing Mom’s dress. Discovering his own sexuality is trouble enough for Finn; now the man he’s always adored wants to be a woman! Seems like dark days ahead—until newfound friend Lizzie comes along.
“Androides”
Facing a boring and lonely summer, androgynous teenage Simon takes to trying alien communication. No news is dull news till a mysterious girl comes into the neighborhood and turns Simon’s life around.
All screenings take place at 8 p.m. at Art Rage Gallery, 505 Hawley Ave., Syracuse. Donations for each event are $5 at the door; doors open at 7:30 p.m.
This event is recommended for adults only.
