About the Event

Come celebrate queer culture and films in a safe space!  Open to youth (13-20) and community.

"Carol," released in 2015 and directed by Todd Haynes, significantly influenced gay culture by presenting a beautifully crafted narrative about a same-sex romance set in the 1950s. Based on Patricia Highsmith’s novel "The Price of Salt," the film stars Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara as lovers navigating societal constraints and personal conflicts. Its portrayal of a tender, complex relationship amidst a repressive era resonated deeply with audiences, offering both a sense of historical context and emotional depth. At the 2016 Academy Awards, "Carol" received six nominations, including Best Actress for Cate Blanchett and Best Supporting Actress for Rooney Mara. The film's critical acclaim and the recognition it garnered were pivotal in advancing the visibility and acceptance of LGBTQ+ narratives in mainstream cinema. Its success highlighted the demand for stories that explore LGBTQ+ experiences with authenticity and sensitivity, contributing to a broader cultural shift towards greater inclusivity and representation.
