7pm:
THE OIL DEPLETION PROTOCOL:
A Plan to Avert Oil Wars, Terrorism and Economic Collapse.
Since oil is the primary fuel of global industrial civilization, its imminent depletion is a problem that will have profound impact on every aspect of modern life.
The Oil Depletion Protocol describes an accord whereby nations would voluntarily reduce their oil production and oil imports according to a consistent, sensible formula.
Suggested donation $5, no one turned away for lack of funds.
The Roxie Theater of New College, 3117 -- 16th Street, SF [ Mission district ]
.....


Thursday September 28th 8:30 PM. :
HOMOTOPIA premiere :
radical queer film program featuring world premier of new film HOMOTOPIA.
Set sometime in the future-present Homotopia chronicles a group of radical queers dedicated to exposing the trouble with gay marriage, dismantling the State, undoing Empire, while looking totally fierce. Woven into the story of Yoshi's adventures in love, resistance, and sex, is a critique of the crushing violence of
homonormativity
and its deadly perpetuation of patriotism, conservative kinship structures, and
affective accumulation. [ affective? effective?? ]
Homotopia holds cinematic assumptions hostage through its motley assemblage of never-passing crew. Race, gender, ability and desire are reworked through an anti-colonial take of queer struggle creating a visual rhythm of melancholic utopianism that knows there may be no future but still hopes today is not their last.
Love revolution, not State delusion, Homotopia.
....
Also showing:
By Any Means Necessary ( experimental meditation on AIDS, loss, cultural trauma).
Ms. Magazine takes a Shit in the Ocean ( 8.5 minutes).
Maggots and Men ( trailer). In the style of a Soviet propaganda film, M+M recounts

Recent watercolors by local art icon Mitcho:
"These are autobiographical works dealing my personal
journey as a queer man,
an environmentalist, and a survivor of rape.
I have been through some dark and terifying terrain.
But much of it is quite beautiful as well....."
