Random Acts of Flyness

Random Acts of Flyness is a late-night half-hour series from artist and filmmaker Terence Nance that explores topical and complex issues of race, gender, and sexuality, flipping them on their heads to illuminate new and distinctive perspectives. A fluid, stream-of-conscious look at the zeitgeist, each episode features a handful of short vignettes, showcasing an ensemble cast of emerging and established talent. Intermixing live-action shorts with animation, stop-motion and music, the six Season 1 episodes weave together a number of themes, including family, history, death, tech, relationships and more, creating an experience that is thought-provoking, visually unique, and subversively funny.
