SUMMARY:Changing The Game
DESCRIPTION:Reelout/Three Things Consulting Opening Gala  \nChanging the Game d. Michael Barnett 90min USA 2019 \nWinner of multiple film festival awards since its World Premiere at the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival\, Michael Barnett’s dynamic documentary takes us into the lives of three high school athletes—all at different stages of their athletic seasons\, personal lives\, and unique paths as transgender teens. Their stories span from Sarah\, a skier and teen policymaker\, to Andraya\, a track star in who is openly transitioning into her authentic self. The film centers on Mack Beggs\, who made headlines last year when he became the Texas State Champion in wrestling and was heralded as a hero by some while receiving hate and threats from others. \nTrans athletes have to work harder than their cisgender peers in order to thrive in their field while also having the courage and resilience to face daily harassment and discrimination. The kids in this film have found sports as a way to channel the negativity around them into a positive\, to gain a sense of self-worth and validation. This film is their urgent\, articulate plea for acceptance. \nThe film will be followed by a panel discussion moderated by Lee Airton PhD that will include Ali Greey\, Shoshauna Gauvin\, Mary Louise Adams and Suchetan James \n8:30pm Opening Gala Reception at Montes Lounge Tir Nan Og 200 Ontario Street. Complimentary to all Pass holders and ticket holders from this film.

SUMMARY:Queering the Script
DESCRIPTION:Queering The Script d. Gabrielle Zilkha (filmmaker in attendance) 93min Canada 2019 \n \nQueerness on television has moved from subtext\, in series such as “Xena: Warrior Princess\,” to all-out multi season relationships between women\, as seen on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer\,” “Lost Girl\,” and “Carmilla.” But things still aren’t perfect. In 2016\, a record number of queer women died on fictional shows\, which broke the hearts of queer fans and launched a successful fight for better\, more diverse LGBTQ2S+ representation. Stars such as Ilene Chaiken\, Stephanie Beatriz\, Lucy Lawless and Angelica Ross join with the voices of numerous kickass fangirls in this fast-paced history of queer women’s representation on contemporary television.\nQUEERING THE SCRIPT not only charts the evolution of queerness\, but also demonstrates the extraordinary impact of activism on its many diverse fans\, ensuring that they see themselves accurately portrayed on screen.\nFeaturing interviews with Lucy Lawless (Actor\, “Xena: Warrior Princess”)\, Ilene Chaiken (Producer/Director/Writer\, “The L Word”\, “The Handmaid’s Tale”)\, Princess Weekes (Journalist\, The Mary Sue)\, Gloria Calderón Kellett (Producer/Writer\, “One Day at a Time”)\, Angelica Ross (Actor\, FX’s “POSE”)\, Stephanie Beatriz (Actor\, “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”\, The Light of the Moon)\, and many more. \nSPECIAL PROGRAMMING AWARD FOR FREEDOM (OUTFEST) \nFollowed by a Q&A with filmmaker Gabrielle Zilkha moderated by Angela Fazekas. \nCommunity Sponsor: Kingston WritersFest

SUMMARY:Scream Queen! My Nightmare on Elm Street
DESCRIPTION:Scream\, Queen! My Nightmare on Elm Street d. Roman Chimienti\, Tyler Jensen 100min USA 2019 \nAt the time of release\, The Advocate dubbed 1985’s A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge the gayest horror film ever made. For the film’s closeted young star\, Mark Patton\, such a tag was a stark reminder about the homophobia in Hollywood at the time—and the painful experience he had making the high-profile film and living through the polarizing critical aftermath as well as the devastating AIDS epidemic. This new documentary highlights Patton’s time in the horror spotlight\, and Patton sets the record straight about the controversial sequel\, which ended his acting career just as it was about to begin. The film follows Patton as he travels to horror conventions across the U.S. Each new city unwraps a chapter from his life that is met with equal parts joyful and bittersweet detail\, as he attempts to make peace with his past and embrace his legacy as cinema’s first male “scream queen.” Patton confronts the Freddy’s Revenge cast and crew for the first time\, including co-stars Robert Rusler\, Kim Myers and Clu Gulager\, as well as Freddy Krueger himself\, Robert Englund. The film also discusses Freddy’s Revenge’s status as an LGBTQ cult classic\, and illustrates how the career turbulence experienced by Patton—whose résumé includes stints on Broadway and a regarded role in the 1982 film Come Back to the Five and Dime\, Jimmy Dean\, Jimmy Dean—wasn’t out of the ordinary for the time. “There were plenty of gay actors like me\,” says Patton. “They starred in one movie and just disappeared. A whole generation just vanished.” \nCommunity Sponsor: HARS Kingston \nFeaturing an introduction by author\, academic and activist Dan Vena \nDan Vena is a SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellow at Carleton University and holds a doctorate in Cultural Studies from Queen’s University\, where he teaches in Film & Media. He locates his academic interests within the spheres of visual and popular cultures\, merging together trans\, queer\, and feminist approaches to an array of topics including: monsters and horror cinema; Classical Hollywood Cinema; comic book superheroes; and histories of medicine. \nExamining what he calls\, ‘the new wave of woman’s horror\,’ his dissertation revisits classical feminist studies in horror cinema in relation to the recent surge of women directors working within the genre. \nFor his postdoctoral studies\, he explores the relationships between medical horror cinema and changing approaches to gender confirmation surgeries. This study is the first to re-read medical horror cinema through the histories of surgical modification and shifting understandings of transgender identity. \nDan’s published work can be found in various journals including\, Transformative Works and Culture\, Studies in the Fantastic\, Graduate Journal for Social Studies\, and several anthologies on gender\, sexuality\, horror cinema\, and comic book studies. \nComplimentary to his academic work\, Dan has also been invited to speak at a number of activist- and community-oriented panels and conferences about trans identities\, especially in relation to practices of medical care.

SUMMARY:A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge
DESCRIPTION:A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge d. Jack Sholder 87min USA 1985 \nFive years have passed since Freddy Krueger was sent howling back to hell. But now\, there’s a new twink on Elm Street named Jesse and every night he dreams of a strange man attempting to enter his body.  And if Freddy succeeds in possessing Jesse’s body\, he will return from the dead to wreak bloody murder and mayhem upon the entire town.   This film is notorious for its outrageous gay subtext that the writer and director have claimed for years was unintentional and the blame was (unfairly)targeted on Out actor Mark Patton as Jesse.  However\, the film is saturated in queerness including long\, lingering shots of male nudity and a sadistic Phys Ed teacher with a penchant for leather and bondage.  This late-night feature would make a perfect double-bill with Scream\, Queen! My Nightmare on Elm Street at 9pm. \nCommunity Sponsor: Queen’s EngiQueers \nFeaturing an outrageous drag performance by Kingston’s worst drag nightmare\, Miss Lilith Cain!
