Description
The What is Family? Film Festival will feature 10 films centered around defining family in a modern context. While family in the past was often a rigid term meant for biological relations and what is known as the nuclear family, the films curated in this festival reflect a more fluid definition of family. The stories of these films represent a diverse range of family types from biological to communal, and from extended family to the feeling of family that comes from a best friend. This festival includes films ranging from documentaries and dramas to comedies and thrillers. We hope you will join us in celebrating all the forms of family that are vital to the human experience. Screenings are free, and seating is  first come, first served. **FULL LINEUP:** THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1ST 7:00PM - Summer 1993 (2017) 9:30PM - Custody (2017) FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2ND 6:00PM - Leave No Trace (2018) 8:30PM - Searching (2018) 11:00PM- Madeline's Madeline (2018) SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 3RD 6:00PM - Never Goin' Back (2018) 8:30PM - Skate Kitchen (2018) 11:00PM - Nancy (2018) SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 4TH 3:00PM - Three Identical Strangers (2018) 6:00PM - Support the Girls (2018) See You There!
