Reel Pride presents a Special Screening Saturday April 11th
"I Can't Thnk Straight"
6:00 PM at the Starline Lounge

This Saturday, Reel Pride presents a special screening of the new feature I CAN’T THINK STRAIGHT, at 6:00 pm at the Starline Lounge located at 833 E. Fern Avenue Fresno, CA.

The special screening is fundraiser for Reel Pride and all proceeds from the film will support Reel Pride's 20th anniversary celebration this year. Admission for the screening is $10. A LIMITED number of tickets are available and can be purchased online at www.reelpride.com. Advance purchase is STRONGLY recommended.

I CAN'T THINK STRAIGHT is an exuberant, touching romantic comedy about clashing of two worlds and cultures. Tala, a London-based Palestinian, prepares for her elaborate wedding in Jordan when she meets Leyla, a young British Indian woman who turns her world upside down. This sexy romance features the beautiful and talented actresses Lisa Ray and Sheetal Sheth, who Reel Pride audience members may remember seeing in the 2008 festival favorite, “The World Unseen.”

Director Shamim Sharif's autobiographical novel serves as the inspiration for the film and explores the emotional journeys of Tala and Leyla in a light-hearted way - to use the power of absurdity and laughter to suggest alternative points of view.
