25th Anniversary!
This frozen frontier cult classic gets its due with a 25th anniversary screening from our friends at Strictly Brohibited. A longtime favorite of Brattle programmers that has somehow never screened at the Brattle, RAVENOUS is a darkly comedic tale of survival and terror set on the 19th century American frontier.
Tonight’s screening is presented by Strictly Brohibited and will be followed by a conversation about the film. Strictly Brohibited is a Boston-area screening series that encourages women and gender-expansive movie lovers to engage with film both on the screen and behind the camera. In an effort to foster a supportive community, Strictly Brohibited regularly hosts private film events and discussion groups held without cis male audience members. For this special Brattle screening, however, everyone is invited – though during the discussion to follow, preference will be given to questions and comments from women and gender-expansive guests.
