A GHOST STORY - Screening and Q&A with writer/director David Lowery
SEE EVENT DETAILS
Our Filmmaker Forum series will kick off with A GHOST STORY in Premier Theater at 7:00pm this coming Monday, July 10th. The screening will be followed by a Q&A with writer/director David Lowery (Ain’t Them Bodies Saints, Pete’s Dragon).
With A Ghost Story, acclaimed director David Lowery returns with a singular exploration of legacy, loss, and the essential human longing for meaning and connection. Recently deceased, a white-sheeted ghost (Academy Award-winner Casey Affleck) returns to his suburban home to console his bereft wife (Academy Award®-nominee Rooney Mara), only to find that in his spectral state he has become unstuck in time, forced to watch passively as the life he knew and the woman he loves slowly slip away. Increasingly unmoored, the ghost embarks on a cosmic journey through memory and history, confronting life’s ineffable questions and the enormity of existence. An unforgettable meditation on love and grief, A Ghost Story emerges ecstatic and surreal—a wholly-unique experience that lingers long after the credits roll.
