Jamie and Jessie Are Not Together, Chicago Premier

Appearing in person for the film's Chicago premier,Director Wendy Jo Carlton follows her 2009 runaway hit Hannah Free with a complete change of pace: a sexy romp of a queer musical about loving the wrong girl at the wrong time. Oblivious to the clues that her roommate Jessie is in love with her, Jamie is moving to New York to try her luck on Broadway, leading Jessie to pine, pout, and act out with a hilarious clutch of mismatched dates, including Jamie’s own girlfriend. Steamy love scenes, sweet romance, and cool music by Tegan and Sara, God-des and She, and more, add up to a smart new look at the adventure of scoring a soul mate. Director Wendy Jo Carlton and selected members of the cast and crew will be present for audience discussion at the 8:15 pm show on Friday.
