Stars Adepero Oduye, Pernell Walker and producer Nekisa Cooper were at the Film Society for a Q&A with Program Director Richard Peña following a screening of their film "Pariah."
Pariah was so AWESOME!!!! A well told and filmed story with powerful actresses and actors.
It's not preach or over glamorized or any of those things that MOST LGBTQA films tend to do. It was in fact a perfect snapshot in a girl's coming of age, becoming one with self and self-acceptance when surrounding by so many faux examples of how she thought she "should" be. Excellent movie to just purchase when it comes out on DVD too. It's playing in downtown Chicago and Evanston, IL at AMC theatres.
