CALLICOON, NY — On Wednesday, November 18 at 7 p.m., “Close To You” starring Elliot Page will be screened at the Callicoon Theater, 30 Upper Main St.; it is presented by Trans+ Support Initiative of Sullivan& Wayne Counties (TSI) in recognition of Trans Awareness Month.

“The purpose of the screening is to strengthen our Sullivan and Wayne County communities by providing a fun opportunity for all members of our communities to come together to share in the fun of a free movie and popcorn in order to help foster a deeper awareness of that which connects us all,” the organization said. 

Sam, played by Page, is a transgender man who returns to his small Ontario hometown for the first time in four years to celebrate his father’s birthday. It’s a quiet, deeply personal story about family, belonging and the people we left behind, the group said.
