Queer West Film Fest at The Roxy Theater in Missoula MT
Thursday, June 1, 2023 - 8:00PM to 11:00PM MST
From the restrictive Hays Code that constructed a celluloid closet to the queer indie explosion of the mid-90s to our contemporary conversations about representation, both independent and mainstream cinema have struggled with the way they portray LGBTQ2S people and stories. And while representation has obviously bettered over the last century of cinema, the question now turns to what queer stories get told. Queerwest celebrates not only the stories of queer life on the coasts but the lives, adventures, and pain of LGBTQ2S people living under the majesty, power, and complicated history of the American West.
Spin the wheel, and make a deal! House of Mysteries returns to the Roxy Theater for a drag show kicking off both QWFF and Missoula Pride. See your favorite performers in a no-holds-barred dragstravaganza.
Featuring Tio Rico Spankx, Long John Prism, Aidden Bedding, Michael Phone, Dandy Bear, Iris Von Moxley, Jackie Rosebutch, Ace of Hearts, and Charley Macorn.
