Opening Screening: Henry Hanson's "Dog Movie" + Q&A
$14
Join us for a very special opening night! We'll start with a reception where you can say hi to your favourite trans cuties, followed by the Canadian Premiere of Henry's new film, "Dog Movie". Henry will be in attendance, ready to answer all your burning questions after the screening.
Film synopsis: What happens when two Transdykes get sick of non-transsexual’s uninformed representation of their sexualities and their lives? They grab their 8 millimetre home video camera, their last 200 bucks, and come up with an uncompromising in-your-face flick about their shitty relationships with gay men and their unabashed attraction to other transsexual women.
