Фильмы

МК-Ультра
Laura Stanley
События фильма разворачиваются в 1960-х годах в Америке. Выдающийся врач-психиатр Форд Штраус становится частью секретной программы МК-Ультра, которую организовало ЦРУ. Целью этой экспериментальной программы является возможность получить полный контроль над человеческим разумом при помощи психотропных и наркотических средств. Штраус оказывается среди людей, для которых не существует моральных рамок на пути к достижению цели.
Framing Agnes
Barbara
Agnes, the pioneering, pseudonymized, transgender woman who participated in Harold Garfinkel’s gender health research at UCLA in the 1960s, has long stood as a figurehead of trans history. In this rigorous cinematic exercise that blends fiction and nonfiction, director Chase Joynt explores where and how her platform has become a pigeonhole. Framing Agnes endeavors to widen the frame through which trans history is viewed — one that has remained too narrow to capture the multiplicity of experiences eclipsed by Agnes’. Through a collaborative practice of reimagination, an impressive lineup of trans stars (Zackary Drucker, Angelica Ross, Jen Richards, Max Wolf Valerio, Silas Howard, and Stephen Ira) take on vividly rendered, impeccably vintage reenactments, bringing to life groundbreaking artifacts of trans healthcare.
Gossamer Folds
Diana
In 1986, ten-year-old Tate Millikin is forced to spend a lonely summer witnessing the breakup of his parents' marriage. Tate eventually befriends his new next-door neighbors - recently retired English professor, Edward Bryant and his transgender daughter, Gossamer. Despite his father’s knee-jerk transphobia and his mother’s misplaced protectiveness, Tate forms a deep friendship with fellow misfit Gossamer, that changes his and their familys life.
