About this Event
We're coming back to Micklegate Social for another night of queer-led entertainment, featuring Isabel Sandoval's hit drama Lingua Franca!
Join us again at Micklegate Social for Isabel Sandoval's critically-acclaimed drama Lingua Franca, first screened in the UK at BFI Flare 2020. Olivia is an undocumented transgender Filipina immigrant living in New York who gets by caring for Olga, an elderly Russian lady. Facing the threat of deportation, she has to figure out how to secure a green card.
This is our third movie screening, and we're hoping to celebrate the establishment of our new group, Transition Room Floor. There will be plenty of time after the movie to hang around, have drinks, snacks and a chat. If time allows, we may also show a short film from another trans director.
Key times:
- Doors at 18:30
- The film will start around 19:00
- The film will end by 21:00
Micklegate Social is a 5 minute walk from York Station and nearby bus stops (including Blossom Street), situated just inside the bar walls. We'll be holding the event in their Den, the venue's basement area. There are plenty of comfortable seats and unisex toilets in both the Den and the main bar area. A variety of drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and snacks are available at the bar. Please contact the venue ahead of time if you wish to discuss accessibility requirements.
Jamie will be your host for the evening, please feel free to ask them any questions on the night. Tickets are free, but if you feel like buying her a drink or chucking in a few quid towards room hire, it'd be greatly appreciated.
