FREE SCREENING, WEDNESDAY JUNE 14!


This is the first-ever feature documentary about Lorraine Hansberry, the visionary playwright who authored the groundbreaking A RAISIN IN THE SUN. Filmmaker Tracy Heather Strain resurrects the Lorraine Hansberry we have forgotten—a passionate artist, committed activist and sought-after public intellectual who waged an outspoken and defiant battle against injustice in 20th-century America.



Post-screening audience discussion facilitated by Dr. Samantha Sheppard, Associate Professor of Cinema and Media Studies at Cornell!

A FREE COMMUNITY EVENT SPONSORED BY ST. JOHN'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH!


As one of only three women in the New York State Assembly in the 1960s and 70s, Connie Cook led extraordinary efforts — against the odds — to create change within a male-dominated government. As a Republican Assemblywoman for New York’s 125th District, she sought equality and fought for women’s rights. She authored legislation in 1970 that decriminalized abortion in New York State, which paved the way for Roe Vs. Wade in 1973.

OPENS JUNE 16!


Through six distinct perspectives and narrated by some of contemporary cinema’s most exciting voices, LYNCH / OZ will take us down the proverbial rabbit hole, help us re-experience and re-interpret The Wizard of Oz by way of David Lynch, to deliver a whole new appreciation for Lynch’s symbolism through the lens of his greatest influence.


"LYNCH/OZ is joyous cinema nerdiness, making the audience feel part of an unfocused but enthusiastic cinematic discussion." — CITYAM


Director / Writer:  Alexandre O. Philippe 

CLOSE TO VERMEER

OPENS JUNE 16!


Go behind the scenes of the largest Vermeer exhibition ever mounted, now on view at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Capturing the imagination of the art world -- with glowing reviews, global publicity, and tickets sold out through the entirety of its run -- the Rijksmuseum's Vermeer retrospective is nothing short of an historic event. Suzanne Raes's film follows curators, conservators, collectors, and experts in their joint mission to shine a new light on the elusive Dutch Master.


"A gentle, thoughtful documentary, populated by knowledgeable individuals."

—RogerEbert.com

Director: Suzanne Raes
