Pride Month 2022
A double feature on the theme of queer adolescence as part of Pride Month! The first chapter of Gregg Araki’s “Teen Angst Trilogy”, the creation of Totally Fucked Up was motivated by statistics on the suicide rate among LGBT youth, institutionalized homophobia and the cinema of Jean-Luc Godard. Maria Maggenti’s The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls in Love is a love story between two teenage girls: one is white, tomboyish and from a working-class background; the other is Black, middle-class and in a relationship with a boy.
