GO FISH
Rose Troche; 1994; USA; 84 min
In celebration of our presentation of the inaugural Queer Luminary Award to Guinevere Turner, we’re screening the iconic queer romantic comedy, GO FISH, one of the most important and influential queer films of the past (almost) thirty years.
After leaving behind her girlfriend to attend college in Chicago, young lesbian Max West (Guinevere Turner) is introduced to Ely (V.S. Brodie), a slightly older woman with quirky habits. While Max and Ely quickly develop an attraction to each another, a poorly timed phone call from Max's long-distance girlfriend, Kate, brings things to an abrupt halt. Meanwhile Max's roommate, Kia (T. Wendy McMillan), helps her girlfriend, Evy (Migdalia Melendez), cope with some tough times at home. You don’t want to miss this stone cold queer classic!
Guinevere Turner will be on hand to introduce the film, and for a post-screening Q&A
