Out at the Roxy celebrates the power and Pride of LGBTQ+ people by removing the door from the celluloid closet.
Tomboy tells the story of ten-year-old Laure (the amazing Zoé Héran), who moves to the suburbs and decides to pass as a boy named Mikael among the pack of neighborhood kids. Mikael catches the attention of leader of the pack Lisa, who becomes smitten. Laure/Mikael code-switches between being at home with their family and hanging out with their neighborhood pals and new girlfriend — all the while finding resourceful ways to navigate the summer. This second feature from Céline Sciamma (Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Petite Maman) is an astute and moving exploration of childhood gender nonconformity.
