Join us as we screen iconic films and television series made by women over the last fifty years.
We’re kicking off our series this month with a special screening and panel discussion of Norma Rae, with actor Sally Field, and the film’s producers, Tamara Asseyev and Alexandra Rose.
Norma Rae is a unique film, resonating with the moment of both its era and our current times. Its remarkable collaboration between women, as well as the Academy Award-winning performance by Sally Field, continue to inspire, nearly 50 years later.
