Art House Theater Day is back, and Little Rock’s Cinema I/O — a “nomadic, non-profit microcinema” founded by Arkansas times film Series curator Omaya Jones, among others — is once again participating.
Alongside dozens of theaters across the country (mostly concentrated on the East and West coasts), Jones and company are offering multiple showings of two LBGT+ films: Sean Baker’s “Tangerine” (2015) — famously filmed exclusively with iPhones — and Céline Sciamma’s “Tomboy” (2011). It’s a nice time to revisit some of Baker’s early work, given that he just scored a Best Picture win for “Anora” at the 97th Academy Awards.
“Tangerine” screens at 7:30 p.m. on July 24,7 p.m. on July 26 and 5 p.m. on July 27; and “Tomboy” screens at 3 p.m. on July 26,3 p.m.on July 27 and 7:30 p.m. on July 30. All showings cost $6 and will show at 420 byrd St. Get tickets here.
