TRANSGENDER MEDIA PORTAL + TRANSLATIONS: SEATTLE TRANSGENDER FILM FESTIVAL presents:
AN ONLINE WATCH PARTY OF: SHORTS: JOY AND CATHARSIS
SATURDAY, MAY 9, 6:15 PDT / 8:15 CDT / 9:15 EDT
TICKETS ON A SLIDING SCALE
The TMP is excited to partner with Translations Film Festival for their screening “Shorts: Joy & Catharsis” which is happening this Saturday, May 9th at 9:15 EDT!
As described by the program: “Far too often we are dramatized as tragic, deceptive, and villainous. We are fetishized and exploited as objects of the cis gaze. The cultural imagination consumes us when we overcome obstacles, so they can celebrate our bravery and authenticity. Joy reminds us not to inflict this violence on ourselves. Catharsis acknowledges and allows us to release the pain of this violence. By telling our own stories, we radically claim our birthright to take up space and celebrate the power of our bodies, desires, and futures.”
Includes films by: KC Cory, Daryen Ru & Lucas McGowen, Sarah Ball, Ilana Garcia-Mittleman, Elliot Montague, T Cooper, and Jason Weissbrod.
