The Unlikely Story of the Lesbians of First Friday at Cultural Center

The Unlikely Story of the Lesbians of First Friday

82 mins | Rated Unrated

Directed by Kathryn L Beranich


In the 1980's, a group calling itself First Friday sprung fully formed from the imaginations of a group of Lesbians living in Roanoke,Virginia. It was the Reagan years and the Moral Majority was just down the road. Regardless of the political climate and spurred on by the pure serendipity of finding each other, the lesbians of First Friday created safe space, threw fantastic events and built a community of lasting friendships that remain to this day.

Screens with the short film "Nice Chinese Girls Don't!" which introduces us to Kitty Tsui, a multihyphenate poet-writer-activist-artist-and-bodybuilder who immigrated to San Francisco from China in the Vietnam war era.

NOTE: SCREENS AT MARY PICKFORD THEATRE
