About the Trans People of Color Film Festival Films:
-Cruel and Unusual: Women, transgender women such as Ashley, Linda, Anna, Yolanda and Ophelia, are incarcerated in men's prisons across the U.S from Wyoming to New Jersey and Florida. Denied medical and psychological treatment, victims of rape and violence, the documentary Cruel and Unusual asks if punishment for their crime is indeed cruel and unusual?

-Still Black: a portrait of black transmen, is an alternative feature-length documentary that explores the lives of six black transgender men living in the United States. Through the intimate stories of their lives as artists, students, husbands, fathers, lawyers, and teachers, the film offers viewers a complex and multi-faceted image of race, sexuality and trans identity.

-Paris is Burning: An unblinking behind the scenes story of Harlem's underground drag-ball circuit. Follow the houses and Queens who created"voguing" and drag balls, and turned these raucous celebrations into a powerful expression of personal pride.
