In Your Pocket: Portraits of Us (Queer Shorts Screening- Kingston)

June 3 @ 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM

In Your Pocket is a screening series of short works by queer artists created using smartphones, tablets, and webcams. The project aims to connect contemporary artists with the spirit of early queer creators, who often worked with the accessible technologies of their day including Super 8 film and VHS video.
For its inaugural screening in Kingston with the support of the ReelOut Queer Film Festival & Kingston Pride, the RT Collective has delved into its archive to showcase a series of works that bring forward the funny, the sexy, the poetic and the quotidian of queer life.
