North American Premiere - Currents
Buy Tickets
Daring queer Argentinean auteur Lucio Castro weaves five chapters in the sexual life of an art student named Adnan (Laith Khalifeh), all of them united by a waggish, erotic magical realism. While the situations within each of the film’s playful, nonchronological segments seem to represent anecdotal facets of everyday gay life, from urban dating rituals to monogamy anxieties during a weekend upstate, Drunken Noodles consistently pushes things into the realms of the unreal, even the mythic.
Tuesday, September 30, 9pm at Elinor Bunin Munroe Theater (EBM); Wednesday, October 1, 6:15pm at Elinor Bunin Munroe Theater (EBM); Monday, October 6, 2:15pm at Elinor Bunin Munroe Theater (EBM)

Desolate interstitial spaces of a wintry, present-day Montreal—alleyways, bike paths, underpasses, skate parks—contrast with the livelier images of decades-old home videos in Tigers Can Be Seen in the Rain. Drifting between moving-image formats and collaging local textures and bygone voices, Oscar Ruiz Navia’s film reflects on loss and mourning as experiences of temporal dislocation.
