Tangerine plus Deep Breath

Tangerine (2015) starring Kitana Kiki Rodriguez and Mya Taylor made waves for being one of the few feature films about trans women played by actual trans women actors as well as being shot entirely on an iPhone. Sin-Dee Rella, a sex worker who has just finished a 28-day prison stint, meets her friend Alexandra at a donut shop in Hollywood on Christmas Eve. Alexandra accidentally reveals that Sin-Dee’s boyfriend and pimp Chester has been cheating on her with a cisgender woman. Sin-Dee storms out to search the neighborhood for Chester and the woman.

Followed by short film Deep Breath, made as part of SQIFF 2015 and Scottish Transgender Alliance’s (STA) trans filmmaking course. The course participants will join us for a Q&A to talk about their experiences making the film. STA will also discuss its new Trans Friendly Venue Charter at the event.

Over 18s only.
