Jones Plantation - The Movie

Join us for a fun and thought-provoking movie night at our second public screening of Jones Plantation! This film, written by Larken Rose and directed by Andrew Treglia, was released in 2023 and took all of those concerned with freedom by storm. These pioneers evolved a viral short animation into a fantastic feature length movie. This political and moral allegory is set on an 1800s slave plantation in the American South, but the narrative will connect with audience members from all walks of life today. Stick around afterwards for a virtual Q&A session with the film's writer, Larken Rose!

Synopsis:

www.jonesplantationfilm.com

In a time of great hardship, an enslaved people yearn for freedom. Their desperate pleas seem to be answered when a charismatic stranger arrives, promising liberation. But behind his honeyed words and grand vision lurks a sinister agenda. Piece by piece, he spins an elaborate fiction, twisting their hopes into shackles to bind them. Caught in his intricate web, they fail to see the truth staring them in the face. The few who dare speak out are silenced through coercion and violence. Step by step, the sinister plan takes shape as the people are complicit in their own continued oppression. They cheer their captor and turn on the ones who urge them to open their eyes. As the ruse reaches its climax, the ultimate price must be paid. Will the truth finally spark the rebellion so long suppressed or will the people remain imprisoned in their own minds? This harrowing tale explores the tangled roots of exploitation and control through one man's nefarious quest to maintain power through elaborate deception. But even the best cons must eventually come to light...
