Director Hunter Lee Hughes will appear in person for the screening and participate in a talkback with the audience. Of the film’s acceptance at Woods Hole, Hughes says, “It’s such an honor to screen at Woods Hole Film Festival, especially since it’s their 25th anniversary. Our inclusion there speaks very highly of our cinematographer Michael Marius Pessah, whose work in black-and-white is so critical to our film’s success.”
