We’re excited to kick off a spring and summer filled with new releases, NYC premieres, and classic films with connections to what’s on view in our galleries. Today at Target First Saturday we are screening Oriented (2015)—a new release about a group of gay Palestinian friends living in Tel Aviv, and Hell or High Water a film that explores the intersection of spirituality and sexuality among LGBTQ Nigerians.(2016)—both in honor of Pride month.Later in June, we’re reuniting with our friends at caribBEING to host our second annual Heritage Film Series in honor of Caribbean Heritage Month. We’re serving up another healthy dose of new releases, including NYC premieres, and classics of Caribbean cinema. The series kicks off with the US premiere of Sketches from the Underground (2015) on June 23 as a part of FREE Thursday Nights hosted by Squarespace. Over the weekend, we’ll host the NYC premiere of Cimarrón Spirit and delve into election season with a timely classic celebrating a beloved Caribbean Brooklynite on the big screen.Coming up in July, we’ll kick off a Sports film series in honor of our upcoming special exhibition Who Shot Sports?, just in time for the Summer Olympics.Stay tuned!Posted by Lauren Zelaya -- source link
