This special limited edition J-card MediaBook slipcase (designed by Michele Rosenthal) is limited to 4,000 units and is only available on our website and at select indie retailers. Absolutely no major retailers will be stocking them.

Taking its name from the Lumière Brothers invention of the same name, Cinématographe is a new sub-label from Vinegar Syndrome that seeks to fill gaps in the canon of American cinema. Offering a mix of auteur driven studio films produced during the New Hollywood era of the late 1960s and 70s all the way through the indie boom of the 1980s and 90s, Cinématographe will explore the wide breadth of American moviemaking, spanning numerous genres and scales of production. Curated and produced by Vinegar Syndrome's Justin LaLiberty, each limited edition release will be housed in a specially designed, cloth-bound, media book with embossed foil titles and custom molded disc trays accompanied by a slipcase featuring newly commissioned art and an individually numbered J-card.

Max (co-writer Guinevere Turner) a young, lesbian, college student living in Chicago is in aromantic dry spell. Her roommate Kia (T. Wendy McMillan), sets Max up with Ely (V.S. Brodie), an older woman that Max initially dismisses but ultimately falls for, until it's revealed that Ely may already be committed.

An integral film of the 90s American indie boom, and a staple of queer cinema for three decades, Rose Troche’s (Bedrooms and Hallways, TV’s The L-Word) refreshingly honest, romantic comedy/drama GO FISH is an admirably DIY portrait of community and connection set in the bustling metropolis of early 90s Chicago. Shot in 16mm black and white and featuring a cast of largely unprofessional actors, GO FISH feels as indebted to the style and structure of documentary as it does other American indie narratives. Cinématgoraphe is proud to present Rose Troche’s now iconic portrait of queer identity in a brand new 4K restoration from its original 16mm negatives for its world blu-ray debut.
