The Queer Ear

I probably can't make it to this, but it sounds like a really wonderful event:

From the Southern Theater's website:

Sufjan Stevens’ The BQE is a 40-minute symphonic and cinematic exploration of the infamous Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, a major traffic artery that severed neighborhoods and contoured waterways with the brute force of modern urban planning. Commissioned by the Brooklyn Academy of Music as part of its Next Wave Festival in November 2007, the film tells a quintessentially American tale through an original film and recorded score by Stevens.

Here is a preview from the Ashmatic Kitty Records website:

The screening is followed by a performance of arrangements of Stevens's music by the Osso Quartet and music from DM Stith.  The event is on October 29 at 7:30 at the Southern Theater.
