Film Independent Members, you and a guest are invited to join us for a theatrical screening of Memory, followed by an in-person conversation with writer/director/producer Michel Franco, and actors Jessica Chastain and Peter Sarsgaard, moderated by Josh Welsh (President, Film Independent).

Sylvia (Jessica Chastain) is a social worker who leads a simple and structured life: her daughter, her job, her AA meetings. This is blown open when Saul (Peter Sarsgaard) follows her home from their high school reunion. Their surprise encounter will profoundly impact both of them as they open the door to the past.
