Filmed over the course of three years, this moving documentary follows Frankie as she embarks on her 2019 campaign, drawing on the strength she needed when recovering from a pre-transition assault. Now happily married to a loving, supportive husband and surrounded by a loyal team of volunteers and friends, Frankie takes on the fight of her life. Shot in intimate cinema-vérité style, A RUN FOR MORE follows Frankie’s political and personal journey of discovery over the course of her historic campaign, and what she uncovers about herself along the way is as eye-opening as the reactions she receives from the community she hopes to represent.

Despite an uncertain future and a longing for home, Jaime Jobim relentlessly pursues his dream of becoming a great musician. Always in transition between places and selves, can he find a voice that is truly his own? Born out of a collaboration between two trans men, NO MORE LONGING is a rhythmic portrait of an artist engaging in the act, the process, and the practice of becoming.
Director O’Keefe will attend.
