Reflections on "The Baltimore Waltz"

Claudio Medeiros will talk about directing The Baltimore Waltz. Diagnosed with a mysterious, fatal disease that’s rampaging through the country’s elementary schools, a schoolteacher embarks on a lust-driven tour of Europe with her brother, a newly laid-off librarian from San Francisco. But in reality we are in the late 1980s, at the height of the AIDS epidemic, and the brother has died of the disease. Written by Paula Vogel, this whimsical odyssey is revealed to be a sister’s deep and idiosyncratic expression of sorrow and love.
