The Chicago debut will be held at the historic Logan Theatre—a landmark Logan Square cinema where classic film culture meets adventurous, community-driven programming.

Futuristic sparkly attire is warmly encouraged.
ABOUT THE FILM
Set in the year 2195, Galaxy 360 imagines a satirical matriarchy where women rule — and men compete in the outrageous Victor’s Angels Mr. World Beauty Pageant. Blending comedy, romance, and social commentary, the film flips gender expectations for big laughs — and a surprisingly poignant ending.
The film and its creator have been covered by prominent outlets including TheWrap, Entertainment Monthly News, Moviemarker Magazine, HollywoodChicago.com, LA Weekly, FilmDaily, and New York Weekly. HollywoodChicago.com called the film “the best hetero first date movie ever made,” adding, “Anna Fishbeyn illuminates the screen as Illumina!”
Fishbeyn and the Galaxy 360 universe have also appeared across TV shows, podcasts and media platforms including NBC, CBS, CP24, iHeart Radio, School for Startups, and The Whitney WRap (Whitney Reynolds), reaching audiences across entertainment, entrepreneurship, and culture.
A WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH COLLABORATION: CINEMA FEMME x MOVEMENT360
This screening is co-presented with Cinema Femme, whose mission aligns with Movement360’s women-led storytelling ethos. Cinema Femme supports emerging female and gender-expansive filmmakers, and advocates for change both on-screen and behind the lens.
“I’m so excited to collaborate with Cinema Femme. Their vision — supporting emerging female and gender-expansive filmmakers — truly aligns with my mission, and their support means the world to me. We’re building a future through cinema together,” said Anna Fishbeyn.
PORTAL 2195 LAUNCHES ALONGSIDE THE CHICAGO DEBUT
Fishbeyn is also spotlighting Portal 2195, a future-facing podcast exploring culture and language — and how words shape identity, confidence, empathy, and social norms. Episodes begin with “the word of the week” — the most toxic, the most life-affirming, and the sneaky phrases that reshape behavior — before expanding into big conversations about the future.
