Up against a corporate superpower and with legal protections at a drastic low for workers\, all odds are against the ALU. Yet this rag-tag ensemble remains unswayed in their beliefs in collective action and the dignity and power of the working-class. \n  \n4:30pm\nA House is Not a Disco (90 min)\nDocumentary \nDirected by Brian J. Smith \nSponsored by Teaneck Creek Conservancy \nDocuments a year in the life in the world’s most iconic “homo-normative” community: Fire Island Pines. Situated fifty miles from New York City\, this storied queer beach town finds itself in the midst of a renaissance as a new generation of Millennial homeowners reimagine The Pines for a new\, more inclusive era. A cast of eccentrics\, activists\, drifters\, and first timers reflect on the legacy of The Pines while preparing their beloved village for the biggest challenge it has faced since the AIDS crisis: rising seas caused by climate change. \n  \nSunday\, November 10\, 2024\n2:45pm\nDaughter of Mine (36 min)\nDocumentary / Crime \nDirected by Vanessa Martino \nSponsored by YWCA Northern New Jersey \nTalkback with Director Vanessa Martino \nIn 1973\, seven-year-old Joan D’Alessandro asked her mother Rosemarie if she could deliver a box of Girls Scout cookies to a neighbor and that was the last time Rosemarie saw Joan alive. Twenty years later\, under the threat of the murderer’s impending release\, with the help of her community\, Rosemarie fought to keep him in prison. Rosemarie became a symbol of hope for her northern New Jersey community and a rallying point for victims’ parents nationwide. \nStrays (15 min)\nShort / Drama \nDirected by Or Schraiber \nWritten by James Rana (Award-winning Teaneck Actor / Playwright) \nTalkback with James Rana & Producer Jane Kotlyar \nTold through the immigrant perspective\, a man\, thousands of miles from home and living in a foreign city\, works non-stop to support his family back home.
