Chosen Fam: Season 1

Directed by Natalie Tsui & Lindsay Sunada2020USA75 mins

Shot around the Bay Area, this hilarious, charming, and quirky episodic will suck you into all the romantic and familial drama of the best indie rock band you’ve probably never heard of. QTPOC indie band Chosen Fam is the next big thing on the (very) underground local music scene… at least in their own minds.

Singer-songwriter-bassist Cody (series creator-writer Kyle Casey Chu) is tormented after losing his boyfriend following a night at an S&M club; drummer Dani is living at home, which is putting a crimp in her sex life; and guitarist Maddox is trying to get pregnant with their partner Anna while fending off “help” from their toxic mother. Meanwhile, plucky band manager Evie lands what could be her dream job writing for an aspiring feminist blog called Qunty. When the band lands a gig opening for their heroes, a longstanding rivalry with a queer anarchist collective threatens to squash their big break. Don’t miss the world premiere of the next best local queer episodic!

A recording of the Q&A is available on Frameline's YouTube.
