SOPHIA MEDINA TUE 8/29 ▼ FORT LAUDERDALE BREAKING FREE On Tuesday, Savor Cinema invites you to grab a seat, sip on a cocktail, and catch a screening of La Cage Aux Folles — all while helping out the LGBTQ community. The 1978 French comedy centers on Renato and Albin, a gay couple whose son is about to get married to the love of his life. The problem? The bride- to-be’s father is a die-hard conservative. To ensure the marriage goes on, Albin dresses in drag to disguise himself as the mom. (If the premise sounds familiar, that’s because 1996’s The Birdcage is an English-language remake of this film.) Tuesday night’s proceeds go to- ward the Pride Center and the Fort Lauder- dale International Film Festival. 6 p.m. Tuesday, at Savor Cinema, 503 SE Sixth St., Fort Lauderdale; 954-525-3456; fliff.com.
