About this event

Join Film Fatales for a discussion with the Wander Darkly creative team including Writer/Director Tara Miele and Producer Samantha Housman. Moderated by Film Fatales member Maria Burton.

In Wander Darkly, a traumatic accident leaves a couple, Adrienne (Sienna Miller) and Matteo (Diego Luna), in a surreal state of being that takes them on a disorienting journey through the duality of their shared moments. By reliving fond recollections from the beginning of their romance while also navigating the overwhelming truths of their present, they must discover what truly binds them together.

RSVP includes a complimentary link to watch the film at their leisure.

This event is open to the public and will be accessible with live captions. A video replay link of the panel discussion will also be shared after along with the chat transcript. See you soon!
