For the sixth installment of Queer Film Summer Camp Jim Fouratt will introduce João Pedro Rodrigues‘s To Die Like a Man (2009)

To Die Like a Man is a look at the the dance between desire, subjectivity, nature and heterosexual definitions of gender expression. Add religion, body modification options, queens colliding, gender illusion, bad boys, ageism and drugs to mix and you get a very contemporary look at the dialectics of gender expression. And it’s beautifully shot and respectful of the world it inhabits. Hard questions, no easy answers. A NEW YORK FILM FESTIVAL selection.

Hargrove, President of Hargrove Entertainment, Inc. Queer Film Summer Camp will take place at the Bureau on eight consecutive Saturday evenings in July and August.
