Drawing inspiration from "Yáamay: An Anthology of Feminine Perspectives Across Indigenous California," this experience invites you to become part of the narrative. Every participant will be provided with a journal and pencil to capture personal reflections, sketches, and insights as the performance unfolds around them- as well as a copy of the anthology. The "A Walk with Yáamay" program is proud to partner with Queer Sol Collective, the poets of Yáamay, and local parks and recreation spaces to bring this experience to life.

Join us on Sunday, May 24 for two post-screening Q&As with "Stolen Kingdom" director Joshua Bailey and producer Slater Wayne moderated by Antenna Releasing Co-Founder Billy Ray Brewton after the 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. showtimes. "Stolen Kingdom" is a documentary that delves into the history of mischief, scandal, and theft at Walt Disney World, ultimately leading to the theft of an animatronic valued at nearly half a million dollars. The film features key figures from the park’s underground exploration community, each sharing their unique stories. As the narrative unfolds, early pranks and antics are shown to have inspired more recent crimes, culminating in a true crime mystery. What begins as a tale of friendship and passion ends with one lingering question: Who stole Buzzy?

A bourgeois middle-aged dentist named Veronica (Maria Onetto) drives alone on a dirt road, becomes distracted, and runs over something. Immediately she becomes disoriented, unmoored from her identity and reality, like a sleepwalker who’s actually awake. As the weeks go on, she becomes obsessed with the possibility that she may have killed someone: a young boy whose body is found in a roadside canal. Veronica tries to piece together what happened while her husband systematically erases her tracks. A chilling parable about a woman in shock, Lucrecia Martel’s third feature explores the intricacies of class and the role of women in a male-dominated society.

In her first documentary feature, Argentine auteur Lucrecia Martel (ZAMA; FF Premieres "The Headless Woman" and "La Cienaga") investigates the 2009 murder of Indigenous activist Javier Chocobar—shot while defending his community’s land from capitalist raiders—and the systematic dispossession of the Chuschagasta people he represented. Martel alternates between footage of this controversial, long-delayed (9 years after the incident) trial, which hinges on a shaky cell-phone video; testimonials from Chuschagasta community members; and aerial footage of the stunning Tucumán province Chocobar fought to defend.
