The screenings will take place every Thursday through the month of August, commencing this Thursday, Aug. 4 at The Theatre at DTLA’s Ace Hotel.

Tickets are currently available on the Ace Hotel website for $20.This month’s screenings are set to include “Mustang,” which follows four orphaned sisters who are punished to confinement after being caught innocently playing with a group of boys; “Waves,” which follows a suburban African American family as they navigate love and forgiveness following a tragic loss; “Tangerine,” which centers on a transgender sex worker who teams up with her best friend to take down her ex-lover/pimp after finding out he cheated on her while she was in jail; and “Babyteeth,” about an ill teenager who falls in love with a drug dealer to her parents’ disapproval. “TeaTime is excited to curate a month of movies for Cinemaude,” Johnson said in a statement. “These are some of our favorites, and seeing them in a theater is a true treat.”While at the screening, attendees will also be able to sip on complementary drinks from the beverage sponsor Ghia and take home a custom film poster.
