Women in Film and Television Atlantic and Carbon Arc (at the Khyber, 1588 Barrington Street) are launching a monthly social screening called Reel Talk: Conversations with Women in Film and Television. On the last Friday of every month WIFT-AT will feature an interview with a veteran or emerging film or television professional and view some of their work. Drinks and chat will follow. It’s free for WIFT-AT members and $6 for non-WIFT-AT members.
This Friday it’s Connie Littlefield’s film Feed Your Head, about the treatment of mental illness using nutrition and vitamins. The film is 45 minutes long and will be followed by a Q&A with Littlefield. This is a premiere: the film was shown on television but has not had a full screening. Members of the crew will also be present.
Future Reel Talk nights will include guests such as Rita Shelton Deverell, Becky Parsons, Siloën Daley, Jan Miller, Eva Madden and Sylvia Hamilton.
