Screening: Beautiful, Pam

Identity is something we often struggle with in many contexts – whether by gender, race, religion, sexuality, culture or socially, identity can be a loaded concept for many.

“Beautiful, Pam” follows a Queer sex-worker in the midst of a mid-life crisis during the week of their son’s 18th birthday. While living out of a motel and turning tricks, Pam attempts to balance fatherhood and addiction.

Filmmaker J.R. “Sid” Stokes dreams of telling stories about people from all walks of life, dedicating himself to a great filmmaking process.   Shot on the streets of Lindenhurst Long Island, Beautiful, Pam is an eye-opening film with themes of empathy, loneliness, identity and love.

See the dramatic comedy Beautiful, Pam on February 21 @12:05PM at REGAL Union Square (850 Broadway) as part of New York City’s 14th Annual Winter Film Festival.  The screening will be following by a Q&A with the filmmaker.
