Transfinite

Seven short sci-fi films by a diverse group of writers, but with a few threads uniting them, particularly trans/​queer char­ac­ters and magical wish fulfill­ment, but unfor­tu­nate­ly also clunky performances (despite the SAG/​AFTRA logo in the credits) and disappointing production values, reminis­cent of Frameline a quarter century ago. It’s a labor of love, clearly, but the best I can give it is tepidly recommended.
