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.
