PARIAH

Wednesday, November 18, 6 pm

Film Screening/MCC Theater

Pariah is a coming-of-age drama about a lesbian teenager, Alike, who unsuccessfully juggles multiple identities to avoid rejection from her friends and family. Set against the kinetic and incongruous social landscape of middle class New York City, Alike vacillates between being a proud and sexually independent woman amongst her openly gay friends and being the feminine, obedient girl that her strict Christian upbringing dictates.  Discussion with producer Nekisa Cooper following the screening. Co-sponsored by the Department of Feminist Studies and the Women’s Center. Dee Rees, 90 min., English, 2006, USA.
