Navigating the business and arts world can be hard enough on its own. But when you're a gender fluid individual like Océan Leroy, a Parisian born performance artist and drag king living in Berlin, it can be even harder to balance to pressure. The film "Risk, Stretch, or Die" looks at what it takes to maintain this precarious balance in Leroy's every day life, moving from transgender performer by night, to businesswoman by day. Screening tonight and tomorrow with a discussion with Leroy to follow both nights, and a live musical performance from Leroy tonight, this program from Cinemental will be thought provoking and highly entertaining at once. Tonight at 9:30, Wed at 10:45 p.m. $10. The Brattle Theatre, 40 Brattle St., Cambridge. 617-876-6837. www.brattlefilm.org [L. O.]
