UNDER THE SOUTHERN CROSS: THE ART AND LEGACY OF HENRY L. FAULKNER + Q&A
An unflinching and loving look at painter and poet, Henry L. Faulkner, considered by many the most documented queer man in the history of Kentucky. While there had been much said about painter Henry Faulknerโs life as a colorful local character, artist and bon vivant, Donohueโs documentary reveals Faulkner had a much richer history and complex international experience. This is a vivid story of the gay experience from the 1930s to the early 1980s.
Followed by a post-screening discussion with director Jean Donohue.

Sack Race With Knives: The Curious Art of Kevin Titzer
Directed and produced by Jordan Barclay
Embark on a journey with sculpture artist Kevin Titzer in this short film. Challenged to craft a monumental art installation within a mere two weeks at the University of Southern Indianaโs Pace McCutchan Gallery, Titzerโs race against time becomes an intriguing narrative. Filmmaker Jordan Barclay captures Titzerโs quest as he returns to his hometown of Evansville, Indiana. He navigates the local landscape, delving into hoardersโ trash, scouring dumpsters, and exploring flea markets to unearth materials that assemble into a room-sized, interactive installation. The result is a unique creation, inviting tactile exploration and thoughtful examination. 25 minutes.

CHAPERONE
Misha Miyamoto, 29, lives alone in the house her grandmother left her, has held the same job since high school, and likes her life as is: simple. Unfortunately, her satisfaction disappoints everyone around her. Her boss canโt fathom why she wonโt take a promotion, her lack of ambition dissuades potential love interests, and her parents push her to sell her estate since she has no interest in starting a family. These pressures leave Misha isolated and sick of justifying her choices. When an earnest 19-year-old mistakes Misha for a fellow student, she finds solace in his lack of expectation and begins a relationship with him. But as their relationship grows, so does Mishaโs reckless behavior.
Winner of Grand Jury Award for Breakouts at Slamdance.
