I'M YOUR VENUS has its Canadian premiere this week at @CUFF and brings to screen the story of Venus Xtravaganza, whom audiences first met in the landmark PARIS IS BURNING.

Director Kimberly Reed tells us about continuing Venus's story https://t.co/nlYU260Q1a

Was a privilege and pleasure to help host @RobbieBanfitch at @CUFF to have the international premiere of his new movie Tinsman Road, a brilliant melancholy horror that is both deeply personal and anxiety inducing. Looking forward to the world getting to see it.
