Ithaca College

The Out of the Closet and Onto the Screen film series will host a double feature on Wednesday February 3, in Textor 103. Two films will be screened: 7 Years at 7 pm, and Harsh Beauty at 7:30 pm.

7 Years
In Kenya, homosexuality is punishable with seven years of imprisonment.  Through the stories of many people, from a pastor to a sex worker, 7 Years gives voice to a group of people who are accustomed to keeping quiet.

Harsh Beauty
Existing as they have for centuries, the Hijra of India are considered a third gender, neither men nor women.

Sponsored by the Ithaca College Center for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Education, Outreach, and Services, the film series this year will explore LGBT lives and stories from around the world. The series will present a total of eight films during the spring 2010 semester; all are free and open to the public.
