RADIUM GIRLS
7p, FREE via Zoom; [link removed] RSVP here
Q&A with directors Lydia Dean Pilcher & Ginny Mohler!
Co-sponsored by the Coalition of Labor Union Women
In the 1920s a group of factory workers advocate for safer work conditions after some of their colleagues become ill from radium exposure.
"A worthy entry in the category of workers' rights movies, 'Radium Girls,' like `Silkwood,' is based on actual events...reveals a little-known part of history with a loudly beating feminist heart and a narrative grounded in reality."
- Kristen Yoonsoo Kim, The New York Times
2018 (released 2020); 103m; drama; Starring: Joey King; Directed by: Lydia Dean Pilcher & Ginny Mohler
