Poison (35mm)

June 28 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm

A landmark of the New Queer Cinema movement, Todd Haynes’s Poison returns to the big screen in a rare 35mm presentation. Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, the 1991 film shattered conventions with its bold exploration of desire, outsider identity, and the social stigma surrounding queer lives during the AIDS crisis. Nearly 35 years later, it remains one of the most influential LGBTQ+ independent films ever made.
