SUMMARY:Film Noir 101
DESCRIPTION:Our ongoing genre series is branching out to film\, beginning with the ever-distinctive film noir. A decidedly American style\, film noir developed in the 1940s and is a result of\, and a response to\, the anxieties of WWII and the post-Depression Era. With historical context in mind\, we will discuss this genre’s themes\, archetypes\, and how it speaks to social issues. We will also touch on the debate over whether film noir is a genre at all\, how to recognize neo-noir today\, and some of the classic films that gave us the femme fatales and moody cinematography we love today.

SUMMARY:Documentary Film Screening: Native Seeds
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the screening of Native Seeds: Supplying Restoration\, a new 60-minute feature film that explores the native seed supply chain in the western United States. Filmed over four seasons\, this documentary explores the people working to scale up the supply of native seeds to meet the growing restoration demand\, weaving together footage with seed collectors\, farmers\, researchers and land managers across the western United States. We see the staggering scale of damage to vast landscapes\, and we meet tenacious people who are finding creative\, scrappy solutions to restore ecosystems one seed at a time. Discussion will follow film screening.
