Events from April 22 to April 28
The 3rd annual ONE Queer Film Fest is a celebration of the diversity, culture and history of queer communities. Both historic and contemporary films are screened within the festival to address the growth and transformation of the LGBT community, as well as current cultural and political trends.
Since The Film of Her (1996), award-winning filmmaker Bill Morrison has poetically and rhythmically reworks archival footage in various stages of preservation or decomposition. With The Miners’ Hymns, he teams up with Icelandic composer Jóhann Jóhannsson to celebrate the culture and political struggles of the Durham collieries, in northeastern England.
Explosively inventive Dutch theater ensemble Wunderbaum merges with rock trio Touki Delphine to create a theatrical superband in this fantastical concert event inspired in part by Werner Herzog’s Encounters at the End of the World. Six performers present a song-cycle based on their childhood dreams and hopes with humorous and touching lyrics, performed in English.
