Event Description:
Reeling, the second-oldest LGBTQ film festival in the world and a beloved Chicago cultural institution for more than 35 years, kicks off fall with an exciting slate of movies that showcases the diversity of the queer experience. The festival takes place between September 19 and 29, and will present 35 features and 13 shorts programs, nearly all of them Chicago premieres. A crowd-pleasing French comedy, THE SHINY SHRIMPS, will launch the 10-day event at The Music Box Theatre on September 19 at 7:00 PM with a Pre-Party in the Music Box Lounge at 6:00 PM.
