Since graduating from Homestead High School in the 90s and moving away, Filmmaker Cory Krueckeberg has been back to Fort Wayne many times, but for the first time this week, one of his films is coming to Fort Wayne.

“Glitter & Doom” will play at the Fort Wayne Cinema Center starting April 19. The film is loosely based on Cory’s own romance story with his partner Tom Gustafson, whom he met at Berlin, a club in Chicago.

“It's a love at first sight romance between two people that have a limited time together before they go their separate ways and they explore this budding new relationship and some of the sort of deeper themes of their lives and their relationships, especially with their mothers, and how to move forward in the future as a couple and as creative people through the incredible music of Indigo Girls,” Cory explains.
