Rating: 18A for Sexual Content, and Nudity. 

No minors allowed.

PLUS we have 3 incredible Drag performances lined up to provide a brief show before the screening begins.

Performers:

Dogiichow: Local trash gremlin, Dogiichow is a celebration of outsider narrative, Dogiichow is here serving Horror, Camp and B movie Glamour with a side of fries. 

Ms Jendr : Wanted for crimes against the binary, Mx Jendr dazzles with killer lewks and an arsenal of body glitter. BEWARE! This gender criminal is considered highly fabulous and is known to disorient orientation.

Ultra Violet: Ultra Violet, also known as ultra biolet by auto correct, is a local queer ass demon, whom can be summoned only on the strangest of nights. They have produced Slutty Social Dungeons and Ship Shows for the last few years or so, but ADhd prevents them from knowing actually how long. 🤙🏻

Partners:

No Harassment Tolerated: At Cinematheque we are committed to fostering an inclusive and respectful environment for all attendees. With this in mind, we want to make it clear that we take the issue of harassment very seriously and any form of harassment will not be tolerated at our event.


In the spirit of respect, reciprocity and truth, we honour and acknowledge that this screening takes place on Moh’kinsstis and the traditional Treaty 7 territory, as well as the oral practices of the Blackfoot confederacy: Siksika, Kainai, Piikani as well as the Îyâxe Nakoda and Tsuut’ina nations. We acknowledge that this territory is home to the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3 within the historical Northwest Métis homeland.
