SECRET MALL APARTMENT by Jeremy Workman
In 2003, eight young Rhode Islanders created a secret apartment in a hidden space inside the Providence Place Mall and lived in it for four years, filming everything along the way. They snuck in furniture, tapped into the mall's electricity, and even secretly constructed a brick wall with a locking door, smuggling in over 2 tons of cinderblock. Far more than just a wild prank, the secret apartment became a deeply meaningful place for all its inhabitants - a personal expression of defiance against local gentrification, a boundary-pushing work of public/private art, a clubhouse to coordinate their artistic charity, and finally, a 750 square foot space that sticks it to the man.

UNDERGROUND ORANGE
Film Screening(s) and Drag Cabaret Show. Screening(s) followed by a live Q&A with writer/director/star Michael Taylor Jackson and drag performances by Laveau Contraire and Debbie With a D.
A self-identified "genre-fluid" film, in Underground Orange, Michael Taylor Jackson plays a Californian backpacker who becomes entangled in a polyamorous relationship with a gang of young actors who plot to kidnap the US Ambassador to Argentina. Underground Orange explores dichotomies as they appear in politics, identity, and queerness, blending tones, mashing up genre beats, and infusing the every day with imagination, balancing thoughtfulness and humor with a cheeky cleverness all its own. The film is directed, written by, and stars Michael Taylor Jackson. It is produced by James Lefkowitz, Joel Pincosy, Florencia Franco, Jimena Monteoliva, and Manuela Alewaerts, with Godfrey Reggio as Executive Producer.
Sunday, August 24 @ 7:30 pm
ROB MAGILL (sax from California) & CHRIS ALFORD
