A SELECTION OF SHORT FILMS:
LIVESTREAMS WITH #GRANDMAPUZZLES
Directed by Emily Sheskin
Puzzling has been a big part of Adele's life. It's connected her with family and been an outlet during hard times. Now in her golden years and struggling with loneliness, she finds herself streaming jigsaw puzzles via Twitch. These strangers soon become friends, and she finds herself at the center of a growing community.
HOW TO SUE THE KLAN
Directed by John Beder
How to Sue the Klan is the story of how five Black women from Chattanooga used legal ingenuity to take on the Ku Klux Klan in a historic 1982 civil case, fighting to hold them accountable for their crimes and bring justice to their community. Their victory set a legal precedent that continues to inspire the ongoing fight against organized hate.
TO MYSELF, WITH LOVE: THE BESSIE STRINGFIELD STORY
Directed by Diane Fredel-Weis
This is the first film about Black motorcycle trailblazer, Bessie Stringfield. Stringfield was the first Black woman to ride a motorcycle across the United States - a feat she accomplished in 1930 at the age of 19 during the Jim Crow era. The short documentary includes never before seen or heard materials about Stringfield. Interviews with people that knew Bessie shed light on her extraordinary life. The 300 women of the Bessie Stringfield All-Female Ride show Stringfield's impact today 30 years after her passing.
