We’re developing a concept for a progressive/liberal dinner and a movie program in N. Charleston in early August.
The event will include an informal 6 pm dinner at a nearby restaurant within walkable distance to the theater, followed by the film at 8. We plan to show a documentary short and a feature length film. Afterwards they’ll be a short discussion.
We’re soliciting suggestions for small independent progressive feature films and documentaries which might be of interest to a Lowcountry Audience. These will be reviewed for cost and content and reduced to an electronic ballot which will be put up as a blog post on Indigo Journal www.indigojournal.com on June 23rd. Voting on the films will continue until July 8, both online and with paper ballots at selected events during that period. We’re attempting to focus on a health care theme, but we’re open to other films which focus on progressive change, social and economic justice and liberal politics. We’re going to try to avoid films which have already had extensive local theatrical exposure since we have to cover rental. Hopefully previews for all the films will be available online so you can get an idea of what you’re voting for. If necessary, we’ll have a quickie run off between the films getting the largest number of votes on July 9 & 10 (ending at 5 pm).
We’re also taking suggestions on the introductory short.
Send your film suggestions to me at wjhamilton@wjhamilton.com. If you can include a link to a website or youtube promo video, that would be welcomed. Try to send the full title of the film, the year it was released and the name of the director if you can.
See you at the movies.
