SUMMARY:Screening of "Second Nature" narrated by Elliot Page
DESCRIPTION:“Everything you didn’t learn in high school biology” is the tagline of Drew Denny’s film “Second Nature-” narrated by Oscar winning actor Elliot Page. We are proud to present the first Chicago Screening of this important film dispelling the gender and sexual binary narrative force fed to us in our society\, as well as illuminating the natural fluidity of both found throughout life on this planet. This is the first of a two part awareness outreach – this one focusing on how diversity is natural…and the science shows this to be true. Drew will be open to questions via zoom after the screening. The second one will focus on understanding as well as addressing our current political moment from a place of solidarity for transgender persons respecting every person’s freedom to be themselves wherever they are on the sex and gender continuum. We are all on it and all affected.

SUMMARY:UNCLE ROY
DESCRIPTION:Chicago \nA moving and deeply personal documentary\, UNCLE ROY follows the extraordinary life of Roy Blakey—world-traveling ice skater\, renowned photographer\, collector\, and pioneer of gay male photography—as seen through the eyes of his niece\, filmmaker Keri Pickett. As Roy faces the challenges of dementia in his nineties\, Pickett embarks on a race against time to preserve both his remarkable archives and the legacy of a man whose life intersected with queer history\, art\, and performance. \nFrom touring the world with Holiday on Ice to creating groundbreaking male nude photography and documenting generations of performers\, Roy’s story is one of creativity\, resilience\, and self-discovery. The film is both an intimate family portrait and a celebration of a queer artist whose work helped shape LGBTQ+ visual culture. \nBuilt from nine decades of photographs\, films\, letters\, and memorabilia\, UNCLE ROY is a heartfelt exploration of memory\, legacy\, chosen family\, and the importance of preserving queer history before it disappears. \n“A powerful look at one man’s work capturing the gay liberation movement of the 1970s and 1980s.”
