CGACFF 2022 Preview
Each year we present a collection of films from the Cherry Grove Archives Collection that documents different aspects of our community's history, and we are very excited about our upcoming selection of new films for 2022, such as Roseland, Haven, Our Dunes and more.
ROSELAND
Energetic. Eclectic. Iconic. Bob Levine has been
entertaining the community of Cherry Grove as
his alter ego "Rose" for over 50 years and he is
still going strong. Spending summers at his home
“Roseland” in the Grove, Bob always surrounds
himself with a colorful cast of characters and has
weathered many storms to become a well-loved
queer personality known all over the world.
HAVEN
An original CGAC Production, this dramatic short
film was inspired by our recent exhibition at the
New-York Historical Society in 2021 entitled
Safehaven: Gay Life in 1950s Cherry Grove.
In a time when being gay is a prosecutable crime,
two young women explore their desires for love
and community through a romantic summer in
the magical queer hamlet of Cherry Grove.
OUR DUNES
A community feature made in coordination with
the Cherry Grove Dunes Fund, narrator and Fire
Island Horticulturist Todd Erickson takes us on a
tour of our dunes' history. From the hurricane of
1938 that wiped out most of all the houses, to the
impacts felt by Sandy in 2012, proving healthy and
well maintained dunes have helped protect the
homes and businesses of the Grove for decades.
