CONSONANCE
Dani Chaparro
A queer-directed, acted, and produced experimental film that meditates on a quote by James Baldwin, “You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read… It was books that taught me the things that tormented me the most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, or who had ever been alive. Only if we face the open wounds in ourselves can we understand them in other people.”
UNBECOMING
Navid Mashayekhi
We all try to be something, to become someone. Unbecoming chronicles the life of Logan, as he fights to “unbecome” everything he’s been until now, that wasn’t really him in the first place, as we follow his story from early childhood, to a traumatic adolescence, and beyond.
TRANS 128
