OUT IN THE NIGHT – Saturday Nov 15, 3 PM
This shocking documentary based on the true story of what the newspapers called the New Jersey 4. Under the neon lights in a gay-friendly neighborhood of New York City, four young African-American lesbians are violently and sexually threatened by a man on the street. Most men would have moved on, but the man in question instead threw slurs at the women who in the media were branded as the aggressors. After they defend themselves against him, they are charged and convicted in the courts and in the media as a ‘Gang of Killer Lesbians’.
Directed by Blair Doroshwalther, 2014, USA, 75 min
