20th Anniversary: “The Cockettes” Documentary at NewFest
This event has passed
Film screening & Talk-back
Event Description:
In partnership with NewFest, the LGBTQ film festival, the Museum will host a screening and panel discussion of the documentary described by Daily Variety as capturing “the anarchic, freewheeling spirit of San Francisco in the late ’60s-early ’70’s better than any film I’ve ever seen.” “The Cockettes,” directed by David Weissman and Bill Weber — both who will participate in the post-screening Q&A moderated by award-winning filmmaker Stephen Winter — focuses on the performance group of the same name.
