Freshman Orientation

OUT AT THE MOVIES
Sponsored by the Long Island Gay and Lesbian Film Festival

An official event of National Coming Out Week, sponsored by Pride Alliance of Long Island & Here!TV

Admission includes post-screening reception.

A typical Midwestern 18 year-old freshman at a large state university eager to delve into the college party life, instead discovers that school is not the beer-driven, sexual fantasy of his imagination. Determined to do anything to obtain the girl of his dreams (a gorgeous but reluctant sorority girl), he decides to adopt a gay identity in order to insinuate himself in her life. This casual charade, however, quickly lands him in a morass of campus activism, gender warfare, fraternity hazes, sorority torture, "coming out" narratives, political martyrdom, and ultimately, a university-wide meltdown.

USA, 2007, 91 min., color . Director: Ryan Shiraki . Cast: Sam Huntington, Marla Sokoloff, Mike Erwin, Heather Matarazzo, Kaitlin Doubleday, Bryce Johnson, Jud Tylor, John Goodman, Rachel Dratch
