ISRAEL/PALESTINE/LGBT FILM: Screening of Oriented in DC

Watch Oriented, a documentary about three gay Palestinian friends living in Tel Aviv, in Washington DC.

Jake Witzenfeld's film follows the trio as they sort out their national and sexual identities. It’s a chance to see LGBTQ+ cinema tackle the intersection of sexuality, culture, and politics, not just in a broad way, but through specific lives.

Screenings like this one matter for DC's LGBTQ+ culture. They give people, locals and visitors, a chance to see thoughtful stories. Stories that show queer experiences from somewhere else, not just what you might know. And these events usually get people talking, making connections with others curious about LGBTQ+ lives beyond their own.

All the details—when, where, how to get in—are on the venue's Facebook page, linked in this directory. If you want to spend an evening supporting LGBTQ+ artists and filmmakers, this is how you do it.
