Inspired by Shayna Maci Warner’s “Pride is a Riot” list and film essay published by Letterboxd News, this riveting film series focuses on Queer folks who commit crimes as an act of resistance – and sometimes just for fun!

Featuring films from The Wachowski Sisters, John Waters, Todd Haynes, Gus Van Sant and Lizzie Borden, among others, this inclusive slate of Queer classics and newer discoveries has something gay and fun for everyone!

Shayna Maci Warner is a film programmer and writer whose gratuitously queer work appears in Paste Magazine, The Film Stage and Autostraddle, among others. You can follow their upcoming projects, including a book on LGBTQIA+ representation in television, at shaynamaci.substack.com

Also check out our schedule at Prospect Park.

As part of the series, all attendees receive a whole month of MUBI to watch hand-picked, award-winning cinema. This month, you can check out their newest collection of LGBTQ+ films and more, by signing up at mubi.com/nitehawk.
