The Cinema will host a screening of VHYes (Jack Henry Robbins, U.S. 2019, 72 min.) as part of Anomaly—The Rochester Genre Film Festival, preceded by The Glory Years (Garrett Burns, U.S. 2019, 6 min.): "A former child star from popular 90's sitcom "The Glory Years" finds herself as the special guest at a 90's-nostalgia cult gathering."

On Christmas day 1987, Ralph receives the totally rad gift of a VHS camcorder and just like any red-blooded American child, he's eager to test out his new toy. What we see next combines Ralph filmed adventures with his best friend, random clips he tapes from late-night television, and because he's recording it all over his parents' wedding video, snippets of his mom and dad in happier times.

A pop-culture fantasia for fans of Adult Swim and late-night channel surfing fiends, VHYes is an analog exploration into the mind of a child, an 80's television mixtape, and a bizarre mashup of what happens when the two collide.
