    🌈🎬OUT LOUD is here! Up next, is Luca Guadagnino’s Call Me By Your Name.

    Join us October 18 at 8:00p for this compelling screening.

    The Italian summer of 1983 was hot in so many ways. Bookish Elio’s (TimothĂ©e Chalamet) summer takes an unexpected turn when his father invites American graduate student Oliver (Armie Hammer) to their gorgeous villa to assist in archaeology research. At first Elio and Oliver seem to have little in common, but the soon develop a passionate bond. The final installment in director Luca Guadagnino’s “Desire Trilogy,” Call Me By Your Name is a visually rich examination of young love and loss.

    🌈🎬 OUT LOUD is here! Up first, is Marlon Riggs’ Tongues Untied.

    Join us October 18 at 6:30p for this powerful screening.

    As director Marlon Riggs explained, “Tongues United was motivated by a singular imperative: to shatter America’s brutalizing silence around matters of sexual and racial difference.” Quickly becoming a flashpoint in public debates around race, sexuality, and public decency, Riggs’ masterful experimental documentary clearly accomplished this goal. Movingly poetic, erotic, angry and beautiful, Tongues Untied destroys longstanding myths surrounding what it means to be a black gay man.

    Genre: Documentary
    Year: 1990
    Runtime: 55 minutes
    Language: English
    Production Country: USA
