Join us for the SF Premiere of Fire Through Dry Grass, a film edited by our very own Diana Diroy!
After the film, Diana will be joined by Jim LeBrecht (Executive Producer) and Alexis Neophytides (Co-Director and Producer) for a discussion on the film. It's also Diana's birthday! Woo!
About the Film
Wearing snapback caps and Air Jordans, the Reality Poets don’t look like typical nursing home residents. In Fire Through Dry Grass, these Black and brown disabled artists document their lives on lockdown during Covid, using their poetry and art to underscore the danger and imprisonment they feel. In the face of institutional neglect, they refuse to be abused, confined, and erased.
We'll all be purchasing our own tickets: https://roxie.com/film/fire-through-dry-grass/
