It has definitely been a “Cruel Summer” here in New York, with 100-degree heatwaves for days. Today is no different, as it looks set to be a brutal one as I head into NYC for our big event, MixNYC at the famed Power Station studios. Gotta love this song with that swanky xylophone; the garish cover, however? Not so much.

Bat eyelashes between screenings at our MIXr! Bevs and snacks Saturday at 8:30p. Hope to see you there! . . . #mixnyc, #queerfilm (at Anthology Film Archives) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5GEI7mlI0R/?igshid=1xm89jf6d6p0y

Empathy: This documentary film follows a heroin-addicted professional escort as she moves between New York City, Pittsburgh, and Los Angeles. Combining frank images of the actual labor of sex work with intimate portraits of her interpersonal life, the film is an alternately humorous and harrowing look at a seldom depicted side of American life as well as a meditation on the performativity at the core of documentary filmmaking and the sex industry alike. Written in close collaboration with its subject/star, Empathy marks the feature-length directorial debut for Jessie Jeffrey Dunn Rovinelli. . . . #mixnyc, #queerfilm @heather_renee_russ @_niknaz_ @parnesspoodle @thebmichael @mediapraxis @jdr____llc @100yearfilms @anthologyfilmarchives (at Anthology Film Archives) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5EVJLjlb07/?igshid=dvlt3bz3ien2

Ciriza is a multidisciplinary artist and filmmaker whose works are explorations of states of fluidity and transmutation.  Her performances and films use the body to explore the fragile threshold between being and not being. Rooted in the medicinal, her works illuminate the possibilities of healing and metamorphoses within the opacity of shadow and murk. Ciriza will be screening, Sunsets Caramelizados, as a part of the HYMNIC series. . . . @unapersonna @heather_renee_russ @_niknaz_ @parnesspoodle @thebmichael @mediapraxis #mixnyc  #queerfilm #ciriza (at Anthology Film Archives) https://www.instagram.com/p/B48Zy0-lM8v/?igshid=skygskfanigf
