SEIZED Film Screening & Discussion
Advertisement
SEIZED is a gripping, stranger-than-fiction investigative film that plunges audiences inside the troubling police raid on the Marion County Record. What begins as a shocking small-town incident quickly spirals into a national story, exposing how corruption, politics, and decades-long tensions turned a quaint Kansas community into a battleground over the First and Fourth Amendments.
Blending the juicy intrigue of a classic muckraking narrative with a clear-eyed exploration of power, politics, and the fragility of a free press, SEIZED transforms a headline-grabbing event into a deeply human story that is urgent, unsettling, and impossible to ignore.
Following the screening, Pulitzer Prize-winning author and former award-winning New York Times correspondent David Shipler will moderate a discussion and Q&A with the film’s director, Sharon Liese, its producer, and experts on freedom of the press.
