CONTENT WARNING:

Frequently marginalized within a community that already struggles against marginalization – that is, the gay, lesbian and bisexual community – African American transgender males make their voices heard in this film from Kortney Ryan Ziegler. Six articulate black transmen – who are also artists, students, husbands, fathers, lawyers and teachers – speak candidly about race, gender, body image and status.

This film is presented in English with English subtitles.

The screening of A Place to Live will be followed by a frank discussion of housing and other issues confronting LGBT elders in the Boston area. Tickets for this program are $7/$6.

A Place to Live: The Story of Triangle Square chronicles the journey of seven brave individuals as they attempt to secure a home in Triangle Square, Hollywood, the nation’s first affordable housing facility for LGBT seniors. Since demand far exceeds the number of available apartments, a lottery system was set up to determine who would be selected. This film is a moving exploration of the applicants’ personal stories and the journey that brought them to the lottery and what the future might hold.
