REEL Affirmations on Demand presents a preview screening of “Nora Highland,” a film exploring praise given to straight actors in queer roles, beginning Friday, Feb. 26 at noon.
A $10 virtual ticket grants unlimited access to the film until noon on Saturday, Feb. 27. It also grants access to a pre-recorded Zoom Q&A with Director Ryan Spahn and the cast.
Shot entirely on computers during the pandemic, this film follows the challenging casting process a gay character confronts even for queer roles. This uniquely directed film is adapted from the similarly named play and seeks to educate as well as entertain.
