We won't be streaming the film through zoom just talking and watching it together. We’ll post a link to our Amazon watch party Friday night in the zoom chat, limited to the first 100 attendees.
Have a frighteningly good time after the film by joining us on the Banned Books Week YouTube channel for a Q&A with the director, Cody Meirick, at 7:45 p.m. CST.
