DRUNKTOWNS FINEST
October 14, 2017 4:00-5:35 PM Drunktown's Finest is filmmaker Sydney Freelands response to a news story that characterized her hometown of Gallup, New Mexico, as Drunktown, USA. Nizhoni was adopted and raised as a Christian by a white family, transsexual Felixxia dreams of becoming a model, and Sickboy is headed to basic training so he can take care of his soon-to-be-born child. Shot against a mesmerizing New Mexico landscape, we observe the Navajo Nation from the inside out through the eyes of these three unlikely characters. At first our preconceptions are reinforced, but slowly, as each of their lives unfolds, we start to wonder whether the outside world these characters crave is truly the answer. Dir. Sydney Freehand, 2015, 95 mins. DCP
