Event description: 

black& loving is a film program created by two visual artists in NYC honoring years of Black queer cinema across the African diaspora. This year, in collaboration with BAM, black& loving presents Destiny2, a one-night-only program examining the meaning of destiny and cinematic poetry. Films include Happy birthday, Marsha!, a short about the prolific Marsha P. Johnson in the hours before the Stonewall Riots, and Vintage: Families of Value, a 1995 verite-style doc that follows three sets of queer siblings. black& loving invites audiences to discover the limitless possibilities of cinema while engaging with and honoring the artworks and artists that came before us.
