Popcorn Docs

Presented by Docs In Progress at Docs In Progress

Like a book club, but with documentary films! At each Popcorn Docs gathering, we will discuss a different documentary film chosen by our esteemed Docs in Progress team. Each person who signs up will watch the film on his/her own and then come together at Docs in Progress for a lively guided conversation with great company and, of course, popcorn! A great way to mix, mingle and get fresh perspectives on the documentaries that strike a chord. Great films, dialogue, community and popcorn. What’s not to love? Join us!

Our first Popcorn Docs features JESUS CAMP (2006), the riveting Oscar-nominated feature from Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady. JESUS CAMP is available to watch on Netflix streaming and for rent on Amazon streaming. You should watch the film on your own ahead of time and then come to Popcorn Docs ready to discuss. Your co-hosts for this event will be Executive Director Erica Ginsberg and Programs Manager Andrea Passafiume.
