Merry Christmas Eve, bitch!

A perfectly anarchic alternative festive feature, Anora director Sean Baker's breakout film follows trans sex workers Sin-Dee Rella and Alexandra over an eventful day and a night before Christmas, as they scour the less glamorous side of Hollywood for Sin-Dee’s good-for-nothing boyfriend Chester.

Shot entirely on smartphones, Tangerine is a kinetic LA odyssey which, writes Slate’s Dana Stevens, 'slowly coalesces into a romantic comedy as intricately constructed as any door-slamming stage farce'.

Distorted Frame is a community film club that presents screenings of films which embrace the unique qualities, flaws and possibilities of the digital camera.
