The film program starts at 7:00 with the delightful British short, KILORAN BAY, starring Alan Cu***ng. DEPARTURES, an adult s*x comedy with sharp edges, is our feature. As soon as the committee watched this one, we knew it deserved a special place on our schedule. This is a DON'T MISS PROGRAM!

Your movie ticket also gets you in to the after party with beats by DJ Edgewood, drinks, and food by David Alan. What a terrific way to celebrate PRIDE!

Tonight at Cinestudio we're showing two great features. At 7:00, come for the moving Honduran drama EVA, about a trans femme grandmother who must disrupt her life as a dancer to care for her grandchild. Shown with the gorgeous short film ZARI, set in a sari shop in India.

True crime fans will want to see MY BROTHER'S KILLER at 9:30. Gay p**n actor Billy London was brutally murdered in LA in the 1990s. His killer wasn't found. But friends and family members could not let the case die. In doing the research for this very documentary, the filmmakers came across evidence that helped to solve the murder. Shown with two great short films, WITNESS and EXHAUSTED AND SORE.

We also have a special guest at the 7:00 movie, Miss Connecticut USA Jaeden Hammely! Come early to get pictures with her!

Links to tickets and passes in the linktree in our bio and at OutFilmCT.org. Tickets are also available at the door.

There is ample FREE PARKING at the theater. While films are playing at Cinestudio, you can park in any spot on the Trinity College campus, excluding accessible spots unless you have a state-issued placard.
