SUMMARY:DC[FRAMEWORKS]
DESCRIPTION:DC[FRAMEWORKS] provides directors and producers at all experience levels with a unique opportunity to receive constructive\, peer-level feedback on their rough-cut films—whether feature-length or short. Each screening is followed by a moderated discussion\, where filmmakers gain valuable insights from an engaged audience\, subject-matter experts\, and experienced DC-based filmmakers. \nJoin us at Eaton Cinema for an in-progress screening of Max Rykov and An-Phuong Ly’s documentary shorts. \nDirected by Max Rykov: After fleeing Russian aggression for the second time in her life\, the 17-year-old Crimea-born pianist Khrystyna Mykhailichenko prepares to play for international audiences across Europe. This is her on the cultural front. \nDirected by An-Phuong Ly: The last remaining South Vietnamese naval officers reunite in a California suburb for the final time. Finding solace in the shared experience of their youth\, they reconnect with the few people in the world who understand the complexities that shape them. \nDC[FRAMEWORKS] is a year-round screening series showcasing work-in-progress projects by DC-based filmmakers\, as part of the DC/FRAME program presented in partnership with DC/DOX and HumanitiesDC. \nRegistration Event Link

SUMMARY:Culture Series: The War on Drugs in DC
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean for DC residents to say\, “the drug war is over”? \nIn 1989\, Washington\, DC\, was an epicenter for the crack epidemic. Elected officials\, including then-President George H.W. Bush\, politicized the city’s struggles to further misguided and punitive policies that were implemented by Nixon’s “war on drugs.” For decades\, these policies unjustly targeted Black and Brown Americans\, and DC was no exception. \nToday\, the reverberations of the drug war are still felt by generations of Washingtonians who saw sons\, daughters\, fathers\, mothers\, brothers\, sisters\, and friends locked away for drug offenses. The cycles of incarceration unraveled the fabric that binds families together and changed the life trajectory of those who found themselves in the crosshairs of the law. \nIn 2024\, we see a new era of progressive drug policies and restorative justice that includes cannabis legalization. As advocates grapple with new industry and legislation\, many are left wondering what it means to end the “war on drugs.” From ending incarceration and creating paths for re-entry to opportunities in new industries and the chance to build wealth\, what does it mean for DC residents to say\, “the drug war is over”? \nJoin HumanitiesDC and guest curator Caroline Phillips\, Founder and Executive Producer of the National Cannabis Festival\, for an engaging and thought-provoking discussion on this bold question in the upcoming Culture Series. \nASL Interpretation will be provided. \nRegistration Event Link
