SCREENING ACTS: Film + Discussion Series
Sundays, July 14 – August 18, 1 – 4 PM
Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts, Room 201
This July and August, join us for a free film and discussion series celebrating Black independent cinema, and exploring the roles we negotiate on and off screen. Some step in and out of roles with ease, others search for a role that feels right. Some are denied the role they desire, and others struggle to slip free of a role they’ve been pressured into playing. Some pronounce themselves boldly and directly, while others remain evasive and mercurial. Between chameleons and cowboys, sermons and soliloquies, intimacy and deception, SCREENING ACTS explores the politics of performance through six Black independent films that collectively ask: if it’s all an act, what role will you play?
A catered, group discussion will follow each screening. Free and open to all!
