Film: Reel in the Closet

“Reel in the Closet,” a film by Stu Maddux (who will be at the screening!) Sun 10/18 1pm
A valentine to film archivists everywhere, the documentary Reel in the Closet unspools home movies and the rediscovered filmed records of LGBT+ lives otherwise consigned to a forgotten past. Entrancing in its imagery of an overlooked queer mundane and energizing in its sharing of records of actions, marches, and other news events, Stu Maddux’s compilation recirculates a broader LGBT+ history while enacting a manifesto for paying attention to the stories of our elders and to the recordings and artifacts they left behind.
