Join Us for a Day of Soul-Nourishing Stories and Community at Agenda Bookstore Café

Come together for a historic, soul-stirring afternoon at Agenda Bookstore Café, a vital space for queer, trans, and feminist communities. This fundraising event supports 75 SHOTS Pocket Cinema's mission to bring vulnerable queer artists from across Africa together for the first-ever in-person collaboration at the Purple Mountain Artist Residency in South Africa. After nearly a decade of virtual connections, this is a historic moment for us to unite and bring our shared vision to life.

This isn’t just a fundraiser—it’s an opportunity to feed the soul and celebrate stories that inspire, challenge, and transform. Unoma Azuah's book Embracing My Shadow is the first published lesbian memoir in Nigeria, and she is the editor of Wedged Between Man and God…

Solidarity | Reach out and Touch

We aim to move audiences from empathy to action on LGBTQ+ rights issues. 100% of the proceeds go to 75 SHOTS Pocket Cinema, a non-profit media arts organization by, for, and about marginalized BIPOC queer artists, originally from the Global South. Through the power of mobile filmmaking, we support the collaborative creation of experimental films that amplify underrepresented voices, foster global solidarity, and advocate for humanitarian causes.

The main subject is a non binary black person's head and shoulder in b/w. Their haircut is short and shaved on the side. It is a cartoon illustration. There is a hand holding a smartphone in front of the subject in landscape mode. The index finger and thumb are all that you can see from the hand and it's in the same b/w colour as the subject with silver undertones. The frame of the phone is golden colour. The screen of the phone is cracked  and ressembles a damaged windshield that has been broken by a fallen rock/pebble from a truck on the highway. The colour image on the screen of the phone, focuses on the naked eyes cheekbone and pierced nose.  It’s in the radiant colour of the rainbow The mouth is in b/w as it is outside the frame of the smartphone. Illustration by Wacyl Kha 75 SHOTS  founding member. Queer Cinema from the Global South
