One Night at Sundance: '52 Tuesdays'
"Honest, insightful and bravely against the grain, 52 Tuesdays is a magnificent debut." Tom Clift, 'Concrete Playground'
16-year-old Billie's reluctant path to independence is accelerated when her mother reveals plans for gender transition and their time together becomes limited to Tuesday afternoons. Filmed over the course of a year, once a week, every week, only on Tuesdays, these unique filmmaking rules bring a rare authenticity to an emotionally charged story of desire, responsibility and transformation.
This award-winning film won't be in U.S. theaters until next year, but YOU can see it now!
Join North Jersey Pride as we celebrate Transgender Awareness Week with a very special advance screening at Maplewood Theatres. A talk-back with Garden State Equality's Andy Bowen, Lambda Legal's RJ Thompson and Dr. Jillian Weiss will follow.
