Reel Stories is a free quarterly screening series dedicated to showcasing international queer cinema, with a focus on marginalized perspectives. All screenings are in partnership with City of Asylum.
City of Asylum builds a more just community by protecting and celebrating creative freedom of expression. They provide sanctuary to literary writers exiled under threat of persecution, so that they can continue to write and are not silenced.
Every event is free and open to the public
Upcoming Event: Sublime
Join us on August 13th for a screening of Sublime, a thoughtful and tender handling of a teen’s emerging sexuality. Shy 16–year-old Manuel comes alive when he, his best friend Felipe and other buddies form a garage rock band.
