The vitals:
7:00 ~ Doors
7:30 ~ QUEEN TAKES BISHOP
9:00 ~ Q&A with director and actors

Executive produced by Richard Linklater and directed by Austin filmmaker Wil Kelly, the intimate character piece QUEEN TAKES BISHOP trades traditional plot mechanics for a deep dive into the inner worlds of two wandering souls. Ranging from the philosophical to the erotic, the film is driven by exploratory conversations that balance stark seriousness with unexpected whimsy.

“A lonely philosophy professor hires a sex worker to have a conversation and play chess. As they attempt to connect, we learn the philosopher’s motives may not be what they seem.”

Stick around after the film for a Q&A session with the director and lead actors: Darren Benjamin and Natalie Joy.
