Join us for The Fyrefly Institute and Metro Cinema’s partnered screening of the films, what are you having and Summer Qamp! Summer Qamp profiles Camp fYrefly, a summer camp program that provides a safe space for LGBTQ youth—surrounded by counsellors who relate to them, queer, non-binary and trans teens get to experience the joy of being kids in a supportive camp in rural Alberta. Camp fYrefly is a program at the Fyrefly Institute and the film is based on the Alberta South location.
What are you Having? is a poignant short film that highlights the experiences of three Albertan families, who have chosen not to assign a gender at birth to their child. From the anticipation of a new baby to the challenges of raising toddlers and teenagers, the film offers a glimpse into the lives of gender creative parents as they navigate societal gender norms and skepticism. Despite pushback, the parents remain hopeful that gender creative parenting will empower a new generation of children to embrace their true selves, free from traditional gender constraints.
Doors open at 6 PM, with trivia in the lobby!
