Monday March 7th – Two shorts and Four Feature Films, tonight at 7pm
Tonight at 7pm we’ll officially release two shorts and four feature films. Some highlights include Invisible Hand, the first documentary on the Rights of Nature movement, poised as “capitalism’s one true opponent.”
Next up, the multi-award-winning feature I’m Wanita. It’s an irresistible music doc about embracing life as a journey, rather than a destination. It takes viewers along for the ride as Australia’s self-crowned “Queen of Honky Tonk” follows her dream.
Only I Can Hear is the story of four hearing teenagers coming of age in the vibrant, loud Deaf community. Between hearing and deaf worlds, the young women explore their identities as members of the community of Children of Deaf Adults (CODA).
Other great films coming up tonight: The Militiaman, You Are Not a Soldier, One Never Kills for Love.
