The following description comes from the event organizer.

AGFA August

A drag queen leads a cast of non-professional actors in a spoof of the film All About Eve. Restorations courtesy of the American Genre Film Archive, UCLA Film & TV Archive, and The Outfest Legacy Project.

Tickets on sale August 1. 

Spearheaded by filmmaker Ray Harrison, the Gay Girls Riding Club (GGRC) took California’s 1960s underground gay scene by storm with drag spoofs of classic Hollywood films. All About Alice is the GGRC’s spicy, feature-length roast of All About Eve. This pioneering DIY movie is an essential snapshot of mid-century drag culture that would feel right at home with the dreamy work of Mike and George Kuchar. AGFA, in partnership with the Outfest UCLA Legacy Project, is thrilled to present this overlooked chapter of queer cinema—restored from the 16mm camera reversal.
