Cinema Gets a Makeover: 'Galaxy 360: A Woman's Playground' Lands in LA This Father’s Day

Anna Fishbeyn’s Sci-Fi Comedy Returns to LA with a Screening and a Live Male Beauty Pageant at Gardena Cinema.

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, June 11, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Filmmaker, comedian, and media entrepreneur Anna Fishbeyn is returning to Los Angeles with a bold new cinematic concept. "Galaxy 360: A Woman’s Playground" will screen at the iconic Gardena Cinema on June 14 and 15, accompanied by a first-of-its-kind live male beauty pageant as the film’s official opening act.

Already described as a “cult classic” by New York Weekly, Galaxy 360 has drawn critical acclaim from media outlets across the spectrum. iHeart Radio called it “out of this world funny and original,” Hollywood Chicago called it “a great film,” FilmDaily said, “beam us the hell up,” and NewsTrail named it, “the number one funniest movie.” Now, Fishbeyn is taking her visionary project one step further—by introducing an opening act: a live male beauty pageant.

“This is an experiment in rethinking cinema as an immersive experience,” says Fishbeyn. “We often see opening acts in concerts, so I asked myself: why not create a live opening act for a film?

The result is event-based cinema: an integrated theatrical experience where the live show, He’s Got The Look, acts as an interactive prologue to the satirical universe of Galaxy 360. In this live performance, men compete onstage in a futuristic beauty contest—complete with real-time audience judging—mirroring the themes of the film while flipping traditional gender roles on their head. The burning question on everyone's mind will be: Can Men Do It All?

"We’ve had centuries of stories about men saving the world. Now we’re asking men—can you save bedtime, wrangle a duvet, and still hit the gym?" asks Anna Fishbeyn.

Set in a dystopian future where women rule the world and men are judged for their appearance, emotional availability, and eagerness to commit, Galaxy 360 delivers social commentary through psychedelic visuals, comedic world building, and incisive satire. The film stars Fishbeyn herself, who also wrote and directed the feature, and serves as the launchpad for her broader storytelling platform, Movement 360.

“Galaxy 360 is more than a film,” says Fishbeyn. “It’s the foundation for a new kind of entertainment platform—one that blends cinema, live performance, satire, and empowerment. Movement 360 is creating space for female-driven narratives that unite genders and feel fun, joyful and deeply original.”

The screening at Gardena Cinema, a historic venue built in 1946 and woman-owned by Judy Kim, holds special meaning for Fishbeyn. “It’s deeply symbolic,” she notes. “This film is about women in power, and to debut this format in a theater owned by a woman—who embraced the concept from the beginning—feels incredibly right. Judy’s openness to experimentation and commitment to storytelling has made this possible.”
