Tales of the City

In 1970s San Francisco, newcomer Mary Ann Singleton stumbles into the orbit of the eccentric tenants at 28 Barbary Lane, a boardinghouse run by the enigmatic Mrs. Madrigal. What follows is a warm, witty tapestry of intertwined lives—gay and straight, young and old—navigating love, friendship, and the changing cultural tides of the city. With charm, humor, and a keen eye for human connection, Tales of the City captures a vibrant moment in queer history and the enduring magic of found family.

~ Included for its joyful, ensemble portrait of queer community and chosen family during a pivotal era. A beloved classic that celebrates love in all its messy, beautiful forms. ~
