Michelle, a single rootless twenty-something searches for sex and love, drugs and adventure in San Francisco.
Valencia is an experimental collaboration of 20 queer filmmakers to adapt the underground classic memoir into a kaleidoscopic vision of San Francisco’s vibrant Mission District in the early 1990s, before the dot-com apocalypse, when the neighborhood functioned as a low-rent playground for a generation of punk lesbians who came of age during the birth of the Queer Nation. Winner of the Jury Award For Best Experimental Feature at Polari Film Festival 2013 and the Jury Award For Best Narrative Feature at Chicago Reeling Film Festival 2013.
