One of the great indie debuts of the 90s, Harron’s curiously moving portrait of the notorious Valerie Solanas (a note-perfect Lili Taylor) captures the outsider feminist revolutionary infamous for her S.C.U.M. Manifesto (an acronym for The Society for Cutting Up Men) and her attempted assasination of the king of Pop Art. With Jared Harris, Martha Plimpton, Michael Imperioli and, as Candy Darling, Stephen Dorff.

“If you want to know what the Warhol scene was all about, this is even better than the documentaries.”- Jonathan Rosenbaum, The Chicago Reader

“Scrappy, vibrant, unexpectedly touching…This film’s extraordinary centerpiece is Lili Taylor, giving a great, funny, furiously alive performance.” – The New York Times

She’s the He (Open Captioning)

Please note that there are additional showtimes of SHE’S THE HE that screen without open captions (on-screen display of dialogue and sounds). For those showtimes, click here.

In an effort to impress their classmates, bumbling high school seniors Ethan (Misha Osherovich) and Alex (Nico Carney) pose as transgender women. Their plan works, but when Ethan realizes she isn’t pretending, the pair must confront their changing friendship, coming-ofage, and coming out. From trans writer/director Siobhan McCarthy and starring a talented young trans and non-binary cast, SHE’S THE HE takes the raunchy teen sex comedy to funny, sweet, and unexpected new places.

“It sounds like a ferocious right wing fever dream, but the result is a meaningful comedy-drama about identity, and the confusion of burgeoning youth.” – Variety

“A refreshing, authentic comedy that’s talking to trans and cis kids alike in a language they’ll immediately recognize as their own.” – AV Club

Official selection: SXSW, NewFest

Wild Inside

Mary Oliver: Saved by the Beauty of the World

If poetry had a pop icon, Mary Oliver would be it. Celebrated bestseller, Pulitzer Prize winner, lover of dogs and long walks in the woods, openly queer but intensely private, Oliver was America’s unlikely contemporary mystic, stalking the ponds and forests of Cape Cod for nearly 50 years in order to open herself – and her readers – to the known and unknowable world. From a lonely childhood to literary fame, Oliver’s life was shaped by devotion to nature, paying attention, and the long journey toward learning to love and to be loved. Her poems inspire liberals and conservatives, atheists and believers, naturalists and urbanites, speaking directly to contemporary anxieties about attention, presence, and the human relationship with the natural world – issues that feel especially pressing in an era of climate crisis, digital distraction, and social fragmentation.

Featuring interviews with her close friends, including John Waters, never-before-seen personal photos, notebooks, and correspondence from her archive, and recitations of her work by Stephen Colbert, Lucy Dacus, Steve Buscemi, and Oprah Winfrey, MARY OLIVER: SAVED BY THE BEAUTY OF THE WORLD considers the poet’s long lifetime of work in context, capturing the uniqueness of her world and the natural beauty that inspired her.

Saturday, June 13 at 7:00: Q&A with director Katie Camosy after the screening

In GASLIT, Academy Award-winning actor and activist Jane Fonda embarks on a road trip through Texas oil fields and Gulf Coast communities, meeting the people who are fighting back against the oil and gas extraction boom. The boom, which has led to the United States becoming the world’s biggest liquefied “natural” gas (LNG) exporter, is also fueling a massive expansion of plastics production, as fossil fuel companies double down on petrochemicals to secure their future. GASLIT is the story of the shrimpers, cattle ranchers, former oil workers, faith communities, community organizers, self-described “reluctant activists,” and people across political and cultural spectrums who have come together in defense of the communities and coastlines they love. Join Fonda as she travels across Texas and Louisiana bearing witness to the decades-long struggle between fossil fuel profiteering and the lives of everyday people.

The Great Experiment

NYC PREMIERE

Tuesday, July 28 at 7:00: The screening will be followed by an on-stage conversation with filmmaker Stephen Maing 

More than 200 years after George Washington described the United States’ new system of democracy as the last great experiment in promoting human happiness in civil society, filmmakers Steve Maing and Eric Daniel Metzgar check up on how that is unfolding for our indivisible Republic. Traversing the nation over a four-year period during the tenure of the nation’s 45th president, Maing and Metzgar observe deep and often fractious conflict among citizens, many of whom hold deeply personal interpretations of the founding fathers’ vision.

Yet through their objective, calm, and even-handed approach, the filmmakers offer a counterpoint to the daily hysteria of public discourse. Each morning marks a new dawn in America, and the great experiment endures—sustained by the optimism, hopes, and dreams of its people.
