Terry Goon (John Early) is keeping strict quarantine in his ex-husband’s Brooklyn brownstone while caring for his nephew Bahlul, a 19-year-old model from Morocco, bedridden after an electric scooter accident. Unfortunately for Terry, everyone in his life wants to meet the model. The whole pack of them — including his reckless and outspoken best friend Karla (played by director/writer Theda Hammel) — descend on the dilapidated house, crowding the model, breaking Terry’s cherished rules, and putting his barely formed political convictions to the test. "John Early is brilliant...[in] a movie that sees a hapless set of self-obsessed millennials who came of age out of liberal arts colleges and the internet for who they really are."—IndieWire Critic's Pick "Crackles with nervy life, reveling in the self-absorbed toxicity of the characters...Stress Positions is a sharp and funny analysis of modern discontent and the pandemonium that it breeds"—Slant Magazine Open captioned screenings: Sunday 5/12 at 8:30pm.
This revolutionary DIY parody film and hilarious reimagining of the classic autobiographical coming-of-age story follows an unconfident, closeted trans girl as she moves to Gotham City to make it big as a comedian by joining the cast of UCB Live - a government-sanctioned late night sketch show in a world where comedy has been outlawed. As mainstream success eludes our heroine, leading her to unite with a ragtag team of rejects, misfits, and a certain love interest named Mister J, "Joker the Harlequin" is born again as a confident (and psychotic) joker on a collision course with the city's fascist caped crusader. Vats of feminizing chemicals, sexy cartoon interludes, scarecrow psychiatrists, CGI Lorne Michaels, and psychedelic gender dysphoria all play supporting roles. Helmed by writer/director/editor/star Vera Drew and using her own life experiences as a basis for the film, THE PEOPLE'S JOKER is a deeply personal journey that's as much documentary as it is parody. "A freestanding, freewheeling work that relies on familiar characters to tell a story closer in substance and tone to the sexual fury, social outrage, wild humor, and outlaw freedom of John Waters’s films"—Richard Brody, The New Yorker "Feels like getting away with something...It’s a film about outsiders, made by outsiders, that feels like outsider art, which is maybe the most exciting thing about it."—RogerEbert.com
