Unbreaking

Billie Bertan, a trans elder, acts out her life and role in queer history.

On April 1, 1983 at the frightening start of the AIDS epidemic, gay businessman and restaurateur Steve Harris opened the doors to the Castro Country Club as a refuge where folks could gather and find community outside of the bars and clubs in the Castro. For 40 years, the CCC has saved thousands of lives from the grips of addiction and alcoholism from its humble perch on 18th Street, one block from Castro Street. Meet Me at the Club captures the history of early trans experiences, the role that the AIDS epidemic played in addiction and alcoholism, and the miraculous recoveries from hopeless states of mind and body in San Francisco. When 295 people die every day from overdoses, the story of how this beautiful community came together to survive and thrive, there's no more important time than now to tell this story.

A queer man strains to find color and joy in the hamster wheel of pandemic life until a mysterious character from his past comes to remind him of who he used to be, and who still lives inside him.

A young woman finally stands up to her gay best friend for the path of destruction he leaves in his wake.
