Free screening! Presented by the Jonathan B. Murray Center for Documentary Journalism & Murray Center Alumni Conference. O. N. Pruitt — the "picture man" for the small town of Columbus, Mississippi, during the Jim Crow era — was one of the most prolific photographers of his time. Nearly a century later, a Columbus native who grew up surrounded by the ghosts of Pruitt's work delves into his vast archive of photographic negatives, opening a portal where images of past and present converge in the everyday stories of the town's citizens today.
This screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Daniel Christian and cinematographer Cassidy Minarik, both alumni of the Jonathan B. Murray Center for Documentary Journalism.
Please note that FREE tickets for the public will be available at the Ragtag Box Office starting Tuesday, March 3 at 12PM. No more than two free tickets will be given to one person.
A free ticket guarantees you a seat until 10 minutes before showtime and not after. If all tickets have been distributed and there are open seats at 10 till, we will start seating the theater from the waiting list (queue). Ticket holders will continue to be admitted at this time if seats are available. This policy allows us to start on time and give the audience a distraction-free experience.
