More Than A Magazine, A Movement
Am I OK?, directed by Stephanie Allynne and Tig Notaro (who are romantic partners as well as professional ones) and written by Lauren Pomerantz, is a love story about female friendship. The rom-com takes a nuanced approach to exploring friendship and the ways those relationships can change and grow as we embrace adult decisions and come into our own.
“Framing Agnes,” a documentary about transgender women and men who were interviewed in the 1960s as part of a ground-breaking UCLA gender health research project, is one of the most captivating documentaries I’ve seen in quite a while.
Directed by Chase Joynt, the doc uses the relatively well-known case of “Agnes,” a trans woman who worked the system to her advantage in order to receive surgeries that were usually denied to transgender patients, as a jumping off point.
