About the event
Inheritance Film Showing (Cinema @ Scotland Street)
March 17, 7 pm – Williamsburg Library Theatre
Filmmakers Matt Moyer and Amy Toensing followed a bright and hopeful boy over 6 years to tell the story of his Appalachian community. In 2016, they began filming the life of Curtis, a bright 12-year-old living with a loving family plagued by generations of addiction. Watching him grow up, they also saw the effects of the opioid epidemic on a region already struggling with poverty and joblessness. Featured in the New York Times, his story is the story of communities and children across the country, and his hope to escape those bonds is the hope of a rising generation.
