Great to host director Stephen Maing for Q&A moderated by Laura Poitras for THE GREAT EXPERIMENT, just named to the DOC NYC short list. Join us tomorrow for one more Q&A with Stephen Maing plus producer Farihah Zaman tomorrow (Saturday) night after the 7:15 PM show!

ABOUT THE FILM:

What 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.
