QUEER FUTURES
@ Chicago Filmmakers
1326 W Hollywood Ave, Chicago, IL 60660
Opening Friday, June 21st, at 7PM
The QUEER FUTURES series centers joy and connection to radically imagine future visions of queer life. Four short films explore fat beauty and liberation, gender-affirming healthcare, nonbinary siblinghood in ballroom culture, and the anonymous connections of a decades-old LGBTQ hotline.

How to Carry Water (dir. Sasha Wortzel)
The Script (dirs. Brit Fryer & Noah Schamus)
MnM (dir. Twiggy Pucci Garçon
The Callers (dir. Lindsey Dryden)

Transcending the rigidity and oppressions of the current moment, these films locate, build, and inhabit speculative worlds that offer new ways of being – in the present and the future. Just as queer lives subvert normative expectations of behavior, identity, and expression, these directors expand the boundaries of nonfiction forms to present new ways of seeing the queer experience lived out loud.
