Join us at PROXY for a trip to Turkey’s capital in search of one’s family and identity in Crossing!

Centering on the vital spirit of Istanbul’s trans community, Crossing is a defiant city symphony and a compassionate tale of hope, identity, and forgiveness. Lia, a retired teacher, has promised to find her long-lost niece, Tekla. Her search takes her to Istanbul where she meets Evrim, a lawyer fighting for trans rights, and Tekla starts to feel closer than ever.

Come early to grab a good spot! Enjoy a Fort Point Beer, cider, or a new non-alcoholic Villager IPA or KSA Kölsch! We'll also have non-alcoholic tonics from our very own Juice Shop and wine from Hayes Valley neighbor Fig & Thistle and our friend Angel’s movie lovin' sake bar Millay. And make sure to pick up some hot dogs on your way to the show from Hayz Dog, just a block away from PROXY at 364 Hayes! All proceeds from beverage sales support free outdoor cinema at PROXY!

* We recommend bringing seating, blankets, warm layers, and a few friends for comfortable viewing. You can also check out our tips for enjoying movies outside at PROXY.
