TIFF and Teaneck Board of Ed partner on program of performance, films, and panelsTo read the full press release click here.
On the agenda is 101 Seconds, which is being sponsored by the National Council of Jewish Women Bergen County Section and the Bergen County Brady Chapter. Both organizations will participate in a talkback following the documentary, which chronicles the debate on gun control that erupted in Oregon in the wake of a shooting at Clackamas Town Center and the Sandy Hook massacre, which occurred three days later. It follows the relatives of the Clackamas victims as they advocate for more vigilant gun control laws in Oregon. Director Skye Fitzgerald says that he “didn’t set out to make a film about guns at all. I set out to make a film about the impact that a single act of gun violence has on families who are deeply impacted by it.” For details about all the TIFF 2018 happenings November 1-4, four days when Teaneck is the center of the film world, check the website, www.teaneckfilmfestival.org . |
