They are gay, they are Palestinian, and neither their families in the villages they grew up in nor their hard-partying friends in the nightclubs of Tel Aviv can fully understand them. The three friends who live and work in Tel Aviv are politically active and assertive about their right to define their own complex identity —  and they’re not at all interested in conforming to the expectations of others. “Oriented” is an important, insightful and moving film. A special PrideFest collaborative screening and discussion with the director. Co-sponsored by ADL and the University of Colorado Department of Religious Studies.
