Open Love NY presents Poly Movie Night, a FREE series of feature films that focus on the portrayal of consensual / ethical non-monogamy in cinema. This month we’ll be IN PERSON at The Bureau of General Services–Queer Division.
Please join us for “Vita and Virginia” (2018), directed by Chanya Button and starring Gemma Arterton, Elizabeth Debicki, and Isabella Rossellini.

We’ll meet at 6:30 pm at The Bureau (in room 210 of The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center at 208 West 13th Street) for pre-screening socializing and start the movie at 7 pm. The event is free, although a $5-$10 suggested donation to help fund future events is much appreciated. Donations will be collected at the door, or you can send donations through Venmo to @Open-LoveNY (#8555).

Synopsis: The story is based on the relationship between Virginia Woolf and Vita Sackville-West as recorded in their letters to each other. Vita’s popular writing helped keep Virginia and her husband Leonard’s publishing business afloat while Virginia was inspired by Vita to write Orlando. Running time: 1 hour 50 minutes.
