Join us at the Chicago Cultural Center for the screenings of Geeta’s Guide to Moving On and Quare Life. As always, attendance is free.
In Geeta’s Guide to Moving On by Puja Mohindra, Geeta Gidwani is an all-American girl hopelessly in love with her Indian-American Prince Charming until one day, he dumps her--after 10 years of dating. She's totally heartbroken, moves in with her Indian parents, and learns to move on with the help of her family and her best friend.
In Quare Life by M. Shelly Conner, Michelle Jones is living the Black American dream. She has a nice home, a girlfriend, and a foot on the rung of professional ascension. When her marriage proposal is rejected and work contract ends, Michelle must rely on her close friends, twin brother, and formerly homophobic mother for support.
