There will be a talk from Andrew Towers after the screening. Andrew Towers is an LGBT Development Worker at Hart Gables charity, based in Stockton-on-Tees. For over 10 years Hart Gables has provided support to LGBT people in the North East of England. In his talk ‘Transition in Youth: Fact, Fiction and Fear’, Andrew addresses the media’s role in shaping perceptions of young trans and non-binary people. He explores myths and misconceptions about the milestones of transition, and the importance of trans voices telling their own, unfiltered stories.

Synopsis

On Christmas Eve in Hollywood, Sin-Dee – a transgender street worker – is released from a short stint in prison. She meets up with confidante Alexandra, who accidentally lets slip that Sin-Dee’s boyfriend and pimp, Chester, has been cheating on her. Enraged by this revelation, Sin-Dee trawls the city to track down Chester and his lover. Meanwhile, Razmik, an Armenian cab driver, works all day to earn enough money to visit the girls. However, with his mother-in-law suspicious and with Chester proving elusive, this hilarious, frantic farce threatens to turn ugly. Shot exclusively on an iPhone, this is an extraordinary piece of filmmaking, with compassionate characters, which remains gorgeously visual.

Strong language, sex, sex references, drug use.
