Closing Night: AMERICAN SCHEMERS

  • Alamo Drafthouse Mueller United States (map)

PRISM 37 will wrap up with the World Premiere of American Schemers by director Jack Newell on Sunday, August 25 at 7pm (Red Carpet at 6pm) at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Mueller.

Two flamboyant con artists pose as heirs to a deceased socialite, only to find that the community they’ve infiltrated is as crooked as they are.

“We are deeply honored to premiere American Schemers at aGLIFF, a festival that has championed underrepresented voices and stories for so many years,” said Newell. “We’re grateful for the privilege to get to bring to the screen characters who embrace and find joy in their queerness. We couldn’t be more excited for aGLIFF to be the first to meet our crew of quirky characters.”

General admission tickets for closing night are $30.00 + service fees and include red carpet arrivals beginning at 6pm, the screening and LIVE Q&A, and one drink ticket for the post-screening reception at the Barrel O’Fun lounge at the Alamo.
