ALIGNED, Chicago Premiere presented by Queer Expression Film Fest

When
Tue, October 29, 2024
Location
FACETS (1517 W. Fullerton)

We are thrilled to announce the screening of Aligned, a remarkable new film written and directed by Apollo Bakopoulos, on Tuesday, October 29, at 7:00 PM at FACETS (1517 W. Fullerton).

In Aligned, two men from different worlds—one in Athens, the other in New York—discover that their connection transcends what they learn through their professional dance training. Though they share a cultural heritage, their lives are starkly different.

Alex's voyage from New York to Greece for a scholarship mirrors his feelings toward Aeneas—both foreign and familiar, comforting yet isolating. It’s a story of belonging, identity, and the unexpected ways we find connection.
