Prodigal Sons
Tuesday, October 26, 2010. 7pm.
The beauty of Kimberly Reed's documentary film is in its complexity. It is an exploration of family, sibling rivalry, adoption, domestic violence, mental illness, love, lesbian, gay and transgendered family members, and yes discovering that your real grandparents are Hollywood royalty. Philip Bahr, co-cordinator of the film series and Reference and Media librarian, will introduce the film and facilitate a post-screening discussion.
LGBTQ History month events are sponsored by The Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, The Humanities Institute, Office of Student Diversity Programs, Office of New Student Programs, Office of Residence Life, The Office of the University Chaplain, The Department of Communication, The Women's Studies Program, Alliance student group and Fairfield University LGBT Alumni.
