OFFICIAL TRAILER

This Emmy and Peabody award winning film is the deeply personal story of the destruction of a modern European city, told and filmed by the people of Mariupol, Ukraine. It is a story of war crimes and suffering but also a story of amazing courage, incredible daring in escape and of undaunted spirit.

Hirschfield Thursdays presents: Stonewalling.

20 year-old Lynn is told she needs English classes, flight attendant school, and a go-getter attitude. She perseveres along this path of upward mobility until she finds out she’s pregnant. Indecisive and running out of time, she tells her boyfriend she’s had an abortion and instead returns to her feuding parents and their failing clinic to try and figure out (if she can) what’s next.
