SUMMARY:Producers' Forum: The Great Experiment by Stephen Maing and Eric Daniel Metzgar
DESCRIPTION:The Great Experiment by Stephen Maing and Eric Daniel Metzgar \n(USA\, Mexico\, 2026\, 100 mins) \nWhat holds a people together when the story they tell about themselves begins to fracture? The Great Experiment is an epic poem in documentary form – a mirror held to an American nation at war with its own reflection\, asking not who is right\, but whether the experiment itself can survive. Filmed in striking black and white across the US over four consequential years\, from 2017 to 2021\, the film considers the results of what George Washington once called “our last great experiment” in democracy. \nStephen Maing is an Emmy Award-winning filmmaker\, cinematographer\, and editor based in New York City. His most recent film\, The Great Experiment\, is an ambitious observational chronicle of one of the most volatile and perplexing eras of American history & identity. Maing’s films seek to expand the aesthetic form and limits of longitudinal nonfiction filmmaking. They are highly observational visual investigations of societal phenomena\, complex power structures\, and the fascinating individuals who challenge them. \n(scribe members receive a discount) \nJoin us !!

SUMMARY:Amish Country Queer: A Night of Film\, Art & Drag
DESCRIPTION:An award-winning documentary\, a photo exhibition celebrating rural LGBTQ+ life\, and a homegrown drag show converge in one unforgettable night. \nAmish Country Queer is a film about Lancaster’s queer nightlife and drag culture\, and a story about what it means to be visibly\, joyfully\, unapologetically queer in a place the world told you wasn’t built for you. \nTulle Queer is an ongoing portrait series by trans artist Brady Pappas that honors the queer icons of the 717 region. Using tulle as a recurring visual motif\, the project creates a vibrant\, community-rooted celebration of visibility and resilience. \nThe Angel Hour is Lancaster’s second-longest-running drag show\, celebrating five years of glamour and sisterhood\, created by Charlize Angelz. \nThis is a night of celebration. Of queer bodies\, queer lives\, and queer autonomy. Of breaking the binaries and changing the narratives we’ve been handed about where we can live\, whom we can love\, and who we can be. Queerness has never been confined to city limits\, and this night proves it. \nAnd this is where the future gets made. Not at the center\, but at the fringes. \nAmish Country Queer: A Night of Film\, Art & Drag is presented by Little Echo Productions and co-presented by cinéSPEAK.

SUMMARY:No Country for Mothers Screening
DESCRIPTION:True statement: In Pennsylvania\, it is illegal to separate a puppy from its mother before 8 weeks of age. Yet 1 in 4 women return to work within just 10 days of giving birth because they can’t afford not to. \nJoin us for an evening featuring excerpts from the new documentary No Country for Mothers\, followed by a live conversation with Reshma Saujani (lawyer\, bestselling author\, activist\, and founder of Girls Who Code and Moms First.) \nTogether\, we’ll explore the culture wars surrounding American motherhood and why so many families lack the support they need. The film reveals that what many women experience isn’t personal failure – it’s the result of systems that were never designed to support families. \nThe evening concludes with a conversation led by The Fund for Women and Girls\, connecting the film’s themes to what’s happening locally and exploring opportunities for change. \nCome join us\, share your experience and be part of the solution. \nThis event is free and open to everyone. Registration is required.

SUMMARY:Producers' Forum: Fire Through Dry Grass by Andres “Jay” Molina and Alexis Neophytides
DESCRIPTION:Fire Through Dry Grass by Andres “Jay” Molina and Alexis Neophytides \n(USA\, 2023\, 89 min) \nAs COVID-19 raged through nursing homes\, a group of Black and brown disabled artists decided to document in real time the harrowing experience of residents inside the Coler Rehabilitation and Nursing Care Center. Co-directors Alexis Neophytides and Andres “Jay” Molina uncover a history of institutional neglect and abandonment\, where Jay lives along with his fellow Reality Poets\, a group of residents mostly gun violence survivors. Wearing snapback caps and Air Jordans\, Jay and the other Reality Poets don’t look like typical nursing home residents. They used to travel around the city sharing their art and hard-earned wisdom with youth. Now\, using GoPros clamped to their wheelchairs\, they document their experiences on “lockdown.” \nAlexis Neophytides is a documentary filmmaker and educator whose work centers around community and how we find meaning in people and place. She is the co-creator\, co-director\, and producer of Neighborhood Slice\, a public television documentary series that tells the stories of longtime New Yorkers who’ve held onto their little corner of the city despite fast-growing gentrification. Over the past decade\, she has developed filmmaking programs and taught students of all ages throughout NYC. She holds a BA from Brown University and an MA in Media Studies from The New School. \nScribe Video Members get a discount on screening \nJoin us !!
