Opening Night Party – Bowery Electric

Bowery Film Festival is proud to screen the following selections:

• (Call Me When You Learn How to Use That) DICK!

  Directed by Bryn Woznicki
  

  Born of a refusal to tolerate male mediocrity, (Call Me When You Learn How to Use That) DICK! is fun, radical, femme expression delivered with comedic edge and an absolute earworm of a chorus that oozes riot grrrl energy. For centuries women have been forced to take a backseat when it came to sexual pleasure and (Call Me When You Learn How to Use That) DICK! is the flamboyant rally cry that demands more from men than the bare minimum. (Call Me When You Learn How to Use That) DICK! declares that effort, not size, is why men are coming up short and women aren't coming at all.
