THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME

Three Dollar Bill Cinema will offer up several online way to celebrate LGBTQ+ Pride this week with films and programs they’re partnering up with other community groups to present.

First up, this Thursday, is an online hosted screening of THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME, presented with TransPride Seattle, Northwest Film Forum and Seattle Sounders FC. More info:

THE MOST DANGEROUS YEAR, JUNE 25, 7:00 PM
In 2016 a small group of families with transgender kids joined the fight against a wave of discriminatory anti-transgender legislation that swept the nation and their home state. With the help of a coalition of civil rights activists and ally lawmakers, these families embarked on an uncharted journey of fighting for their children’s lives and futures in this present-day civil rights story.

THE ROGERS Dean Hamer and Joe Wilson; 2020; USA; 16 min; English and Samoan, with English subtitles.

Shéár relies on their struggling mother for support during their medical transition, though she is not always able to offer it. This observational film aims to ask, what does coming into adulthood actually look like for a young black trans* femme in today’s America?

FINALLY, on Sunday, July 28th, Three Dollar Bill teams up with  MoPOP and Seattle Pride. For “A mix of fiction and documentary shorts that explores queering the cinema and our present moment as we celebrate LGBTQ+ lives through revolution, love, dance, and music.” The films are:

This short, joyful documentary looks at the ways in which the body in motion opens up the spaces between gender, race, and time, producing pleasure in indeterminacy.
