May 15, 2026
From: 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM
Two LGBTQ-focused films screen back-to-back on a rooftop venue as part of the South Beach Film Festival. Taking place Friday, May 15, the evening program at Twisted Tonic, on Miami Beach, features documentary storytelling centered on identity, community and personal transformation.
Inside the Oasis: The Story of South Florida Gay Mecca, screening at 8 p.m., traces the evolution of the LGBTQ+ community in Broward County from the 1950s to the present through archival footage and firsthand accounts. At 10 p.m., Our Family Pride follows a father who comes out later in life, documenting the impact on his family as they navigate change and acceptance.
Presented as part of the festival’s lineup, the screenings highlight regional history alongside intimate, contemporary narratives. The event offers a casual rooftop setting for audiences to engage with independent film.
