Global Peace Film Festival screening and filmmaker talk

Join the Global Peace Film Festival for a free lunchtime film and talk at the Winter Park Library on Thursday, September 17.

In 1939, 20,000 Americans held a pro-Nazi rally in New York’s Madison Square Garden — an event largely forgotten from American history.

A NIGHT AT THE GARDEN , made entirely from archival fragments filmed that night, transports audiences into this disturbing gathering and shines a light on the enduring power of demagoguery and antisemitism.

Directed and edited by Marshall Curry and produced by Field of Vision, the film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Short. It screened at the Sundance Film Festival, New York Film Festival, and was released theatrically around the country.

Come to experience this film that NPR says packs "an emotional wallop" and that Rolling Stone declares is "eerily relevant" and discuss the film with the award-winning documentary director, Marshall Curry.
