“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.
