Please
join us!
The
showtime is this Friday, June 20 at 7:00pm. Buy your tickets here -- just find that showtime in the
menu.
If you
can't make the premiere and panel discussion, we still suggest you go see this
important film about the Koch brothers at one of the other showtimes, but we
really hope you can join us at 7:00 on Friday.
About the
film:
The
Supreme Court’s Citizens United ruling lifted a century-long ban on
corporate election spending. Academy Award-nominated filmmakers Carl Deal and
Tia Lessin (Trouble the Water) track its effects by following the
standoff between Wisconsin state employees and Republican Governor Scott
Walker, who was bankrolled by billionaire industrialists David and Charles
Koch. The New Yorker reported on the film’s struggle to raise funding in
the climate of public television where David Koch was a major supporter. Now
the finished film finally comes to light.
