*A video transfer of the 16mm workprint will be screened. The workprint is a copy of the original film. It is handled extensively during the editing process and it’s normal for dust, scratches, and reference code numbers to appear on screen. It features temporary sound and temporary music. These final-cut screenings provide a unique opportunity to view the entire documentary before the negative is cut, final sound/music is recorded and mixed, and prints are made. It also allows us to acknowledge the kind support of so many people, businesses, and organizations over the years.
