For this month’s Shadow Kitchen we’re excited to present a showcase with LA based film distributor Altered Innocence @alteredinnocence
Curated by Frank Jaffe @queereverything
Altered Innocence releases LGBTQ and coming-of-age cinema with an artistic edge. One of the most fun and rare (in 2025) things Altered Innocence does are their cinematic mixtapes - compilations of short films labeled either “Altered” (psychedelic/transgressive) or “Innocence” (sweet and tender).
Join us June 26th @coaxialarts as we present a sampling from their collection and talk with Frank Jaffe about his distinct film curation and what it’s like to distribute DVDs in our digital world.

Hope my NYC friends go see these badass divas that flew all the way from Paris to attend these Q&As!!! Queens of Drama is sooo good!! Some great original songs too 😍
Hey friends!! I’ve got another cool film out in theaters (and online!) this week and it’s a sultry & sensual French drama that you should definitely check out!! I’ll post a link in my bio where you can find all the details, but if you’re in LA or NYC I’d love it if you can spread the word and go see it in the theater! ❤️❤️🍿🍿
YOU’RE INVITED TO: The wedding of Vera Drew and The Joker, followed by a screening of The People’s Joker! LINK IN BIO!
LIVE! ONE NIGHT ONLY: July 24th
A LOVE STORY TO BEHOLD: We invite you to join us for this heartwarming and historical one night only event on July 24th. Witness the bond of eternal love and the fair use defense, as indie darling Vera Drew legally ties the knot with The Clown Prince of Crime himself, The Joker. As everyone knows for the past 4 years, Vera Drew and the Joker have been romantically and creatively involved with many describing them as “the dynamic duo of love, laughter, and (parody) law.” Now, the two lovebirds are ready to make it official in a house of God, and before the eyes of the world. Guests from afar can join us online LIVE (with director Vera Drew present in the chat room) via Eventive, but we’d prefer to see you all in the theater if it’s accessible to you.
STRICT DRESS CODE: dress to impress, that means...clown makeup, any form of cosplay, scantily clad outfits, pajamas, or dysphoria hoodies.
LOCATION: Your local movie theater or online from the comfort of your home/Batcave
also....
DONATE! If you can spare some extra money we’ll be donating tickets to queers in need! Find the scholarship application on our website to apply for a free ticket!

Physical media just got way more TWISTED!! That’s right, you clowns! Soon you can bring Joker the Harlequin into your home via Blu-ray, DVD, or (purple-shelled!!) VHS!! We also have the sickest slipcase art for the Blu-ray courtesy of @michaeldeforgecomics ! Your demand for a pile of bonus features have been answered by @schlockvalue who has curated an intense amount including three commentary tracks, behind-the-scenes featurettes, a roundtable with @willowcatelyn and @corpsesfoolsandmonsters and more!! Cover art for all three releases is another amazing creation by @sisterhyde !
Spread the word and together we can all #freethepeoplesjoker!!!
Hey everyone! Today a movie I’ve worked so hard to distribute and ‘free’ is expanding to a bunch of cities including LA at the Nuart!! I’d love for everyone to go see the wildest transgender coming-of-age parody film set in the Batman universe as possible!! It’s so good! A list of theaters is available at pic by @tylekurner at the amazing @juliusbarnyc !!!
It’s extremely rare in America to see Bertrand Mandico’s gorgeous short works on the big screen and thanks to Alamo Drafthouse you can see THREE of them!!! Highly highly recommend getting stoned out of your gourd and checking these out!
