Workers Unite Film Festival Virtual Festival

IN THE AISLES

NO TIME TO WASTE - THE URGENT MISSION OF BETTY REID SOSKIN

Workers Unite! Film Festival Director Andrew Tilson was one of the earliest supporters of the Global Labor Film Festival and came to all of the conferences hosted by the DC Labor Film Festival. His festival has grown tremendously and now gone online; I'm really happy to be able to promote it to all our DC LaborFest fans. See below for details.

Tonight's DC LaborFest film, In The Aisles, is one of my very favorites; I previewed it last year and met the director, Thomas Stuber. It's a really beautiful, understated film that winds up feeling just right for the times in which we find ourselves.

As with our previous series earlier this year, all our screenings are online and free. Thanks as always to festival sponsor American Income Life for their generous support.
