Shorts Set: True Stories

74 mins | Rated Unrated


Shorts Set: True Stories
Healing U.S. Episodes 1 & 2 (28 min.) Paisley and Jehan take an unconventional trip across the country in a motorhome.
Sean Dorsey Dance: Dreaming Trans and Queer Futures (10 min.) As a modern dance choreographer and as a transgender person, Sean Dorsey felt irresistibly drawn to San Francisco with its history of trans and queer resistance and culture. But the city he moved to in the early 2000s was not the city he had envisioned. Dorsey spent the next two decades championing trans and queer performing arts in the city, hand in hand with his life partner, the musician, filmmaker and transgender activist Shawna Virago.
Shortened by a Curve. The Journey to Reversal (24 min.) Shortened by a Curve: The Journey to Reversal is a riveting and enlightening documentary that follows the journey of Mark, a gay man diagnosed with Peyronie’s disease.
Trans Heaven, Pennsylvania (12 min.) In the 1970s and 1980s, the small Pennsylvania town of New Hope was among a few safe havens outside of major cities for gay men to find community. Over 30 years later, the town’s legacy remained, but now for a different community: transgender women.
TOTAL TIME: 74 min.
