Please join us for the first installment in the second season of our groundbreaking film series, Global Frontiers, on Saturday, Jan. 27th at 5 p.m.
The Global Frontiers series is designed to bring two kinds of audiences together: Those who love films and those who care about contemporary issues.
We will be screening the film Share? (2023), the first feature film ever to be shot entirel from one fixed camera angle, about a man who struggles to survive after awakening alone, trapped in a society connected only by primitive computers and where the ability to entertain is his only currency.
The sci-fi thriller stars Melvin Gregg, Bradley Whitford, Danielle Campbell and Alice Braga.
Ira Rosensweig, who directed and co-wrote the film, will participate in an engaging discussion before the film about the profound impact of social media on individuals and society at large. He will also participate in a Q&A with the audience after the screening.
“Rosensweig’s tightly wound feature is built on various interactions the protagonist has with others who are in the same pickle where they are able to gain purchasing power via “performance” pieces that earns them “likes.” The sly “Share?” never overstays its welcome (humming along at roughly 78 minutes) as it wags a finger at social media and does so by giving off the vibe of a shared Zoom-like experience.” — Randy Myers, Mercury News
