THE TRIP, Eileen Myles, 17 mins, (2019)

Poet Eileen Myles cruises through Texas, chatting with her passengers: a dog… and some puppets. Myles’ charming trip is an homage to the counter-culture tradition of the road movie, whilst lightly poking fun at it. Irresistibly fun and self-aware, with charmingly lo-fi visuals and lyrical, witty storytelling.

 

THE NAGEL INCIDENT, Steve Hall & Cathee Wilkins (2002) 16 min

A zippy, camp film that has airs of John Waters. A bizarre whirlwind of aerobics, kidnap, hairspray, cocaine, and a fragrance called Abduction!

 

COMMUNITY ACTION CENTER A.K. Burns + A.L. Steiner (2010) 69 mins

Ridykeulous’ own A.L Steiner directs this exploration of a community, sex, and art, in which warm bodies of varying gender identities intertwine. With a star turn from artist A.K. Burns, this groundbreaking film is sexy and playful, and always political. Whilst some of its themes are now the norm in mainstream contemporary culture, Community Action Center laid much of the groundwork for today’s conversations. This is a film that welcomes us to sit in a space of erotic communion that’s radical, expressive, and at times familial.

Note: contains explicit nudity and sexual acts.
