Gravity Was Everywhere Back Then
This could be interesting/odd/compelling: EMPAC is screening Gravity Was Everywhere Back Then Friday night. It's a stop-motion film, using live actors and wooden characters, directed by Brent Green. From the blurb:
Based on the true tale of Kentucky hardware clerk Leonard Wood, Gravity Was Everywhere Back Then tells an inspiring, poignant, and darkly humorous love story of a man who built a bizarre and sprawling home for his wife by hand in the hope that it would cure her of terminal cancer. Accompanied by a stellar band of musicians that include Brendan Canty (Fugazi), Howe Gelb (Giant Sand), Catherine McRae, and others, Green uses intense narration ranging from quiet, vulnerable storytelling to cathartic fumes bordering on the evangelistic.
The screening starts at 8 pm. Tickets are $15.

Thanks for the shout, AOA! Tickets are selling fast, so if you are interested, I'd buy before the show, as past buying trends put this event close to a sell-out by show time. Come early, secure your tickets, and then head down to the Café - I'd recommend a cinnamon bun. Or two. Drool.
