The Public: Film Screening and Conversation with Emilio Estevez
Join us for a special movie screening of "The Public," followed by a community conversation featuring Emilio Estevez, the award-winning actor who wrote, produced and directed this new film about homelessness. "The Public" is about downtown Cincinnati librarians Stuart Goodson (Emilio Estevez) and Myra (Jena Malone) who see their regular winter day shaken up when homeless patrons decide to take shelter in their library for the night. What starts as a peaceful sit-in quickly escalates into a face-off with the police and the media. A brief Q&A with Emilio Estevez will follow the film.
