An enthralling and visually stunning queer coming-of-age tale, TORREY PINES is based on Petersen's fascinating life story. Set in Southern California in the early 1990s, the film follows Petersen's complicated upbringing by a schizophrenic single mother. Fueled by family dysfunction and hallucinations of political conspiracy, she absconds with her child, and the pair embark on an unforgettable cross-country adventure that will forever alter their lives. For this one-night-only special event, TORREY PINES will be performed with a live score with live Foley sound effects and soundscape design by Susie Kozowa.
