Dinner and a Movie - Raising Renee

Start: Saturday, March 3, 2012

Time: 6:00pm

Location: Capt. Kidd Restaurant, 71 Water Street

Feature Documentary | 2011 | 81 min. by Jeanne Jordan and Steven Ascher

RAISING RENEE tells the story of accomplished artist Beverly McIver and her casually delivered promise to take her mentally disabled sister Renee when their mother dies. The promise comes due just as Beverly's career is exploding. Filmed over 6 years by Oscar nominees Jeanne Jordan and Steven Ascher, RAISING RENEE explores deep themes of family, race, class, disability and art. Intimate, humorous and candid, the film sees an act of care-giving - something that's becoming central to a generation - through the eyes of a character unafraid to reveal the conflicted feelings that come with the job. Through the interplay of painting, cinema and everyday life, the film provides a complex view of a unique group of women, the tenacity of family bonds and the power of art to transform experience into something beyond words.

Admission is $25, and reservations may be made by calling 508-548-8561.
