Kristen Lovell (The Stroll) and Michèle Stephenson & Joe Brewster (Going To Mars: The Nikki Giovanni Project) center Black, queer and trans community stories through intimate, personal connections and precious archives. Through beautiful, personal retelling, using animation and afrofuturism, the filmmakers frame their subjects within the lens to reproduce a transformative representation of often underrepresented communities. The filmmakers will discuss their work to preserve history and imagine new queer futures that center healing and the love of our chosen families.
