THE LIBRARIANS Free Screening

As an unprecedented wave of book banning is sparked in Texas, Florida, and beyond, librarians under siege join forces as unlikely defenders fighting for intellectual freedom on the front lines of democracy, flanked by concerned community members and young readers. The Librarians, which made its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival and continued on to SXSW and Full Frame Documentary Film Festival, explores the urgent moment we find ourselves in and is a chilling cautionary tale and rallying cry for freedom – told through the personal experiences of librarians under siege and the everyday patriots who join their ranks in defense of the books.

The Mississippi Film Society, in partnership with Mississippi United, is pleased to invite you to a special free screening of The Librarians on Tuesday night, April 14 at 7 pm at the Capri Theatre. Tickets are first-come, first-served and limited to four per order. Food and drinks will be available for purchase at the screening.

This screening is part of the Stranger Than Fiction Film Series and is supported, in part, by a grant from the Mississippi Arts Commission.
