Katniss Everqueer presents…Queer Coming-Out Stories: But I’m a Cheerleader (1999)
The Screening Room @VTIFF
Friday, March 29 @ 7 p.m.
But I’m a Cheerleader’s none-too-subtle but hilarious satire is evident in its plot outline, in which popular-girl Megan is sent to a conversion-therapy camp to “cure” her of her lesbianism. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t work.

2001: A Space Odyssey
Contois Auditorium – FREE!
Sat, April 6 @ 7:30 PM
If you’re talking about eclipses on film, you have to talk about 2001: A Space Odyssey. The film opens with a staggering shot of the sun, earth and moon falling into alignment. Only slowly do you realize that you’re not seeing it from an earthbound perspective. It’s the first mind-blowing moment in this masterpiece, but it’s not the last, and the movie is only 90 seconds old.
