This World Is Not My Own-A Film Screening

Join us on Wednesday, October 16, for another exclusive film screening from the Southern Circuit Tour of Independent Filmmakers!

Chewing-gum sculptures, a wealthy gallerist, a firebrand wrestler, a notorious murder case and the segregated south – it’s all part of Nellie Mae Rowe’s boundless universe. This World is Not My Own reimagines this self-taught artist’s world and her life spanning the 20th century. With Uzo Aduba as the animated version of Nellie Mae Rowe.
