In this arts lunch on June 29, 2021, local filmmaker Leigh Finke shared a short experimental film she created, which captures her experience of a month-long depressive episode that occurred during the pandemic. The viewing was followed by a discussion of the film itself, representations of queer and trans pain and joy, and general Q & A. (Stay tuned for a link to her film!)
