SUMMARY:Woodstock VT Film Series: Lost Nation
DESCRIPTION:Lost Nation\n2024. Directed by Jay Craven. 107 minutes. Not rated. \nQ&A with filmmaker Jay Craven to follow both screenings. \nShowings take place at 3:00PM in the Billings Farm & Museum Visitor Center Theater. Tickets are $15 person/$12 Billings Farm member. \nPurchase Tickets \nJay Craven’s Revolutionary War-era drama intertwines the stories of larger-than-life\, Vermont founding father\, Ethan Allen\, and the pioneering frontier poet and formerly enslaved woman\, Lucy Terry Prince\, in their parallel quests for justice and self-determination. \nLost Nation stars Irish actor Kevin Ryan (“Copper\,” “Harry Wild”) as Ethan Allen\, who leads resistance to New York land claims\, launches an ill-fated attack on British forces in Montreal\, and leads invasions by his Green Mountain Boys into Yorker strongholds of Guilford and Brattleboro. At every turn\, Allen navigates thick entanglements with allies\, enemies\, and family. \nThe film also features Kenyan actress Eva Ndachi (“Beautifully Broken”) as Lucy Terry Prince\, whose poem\, “Bars Fight\,” about the 1746 Deerfield Massacre\, is the first known work of African American literature. Enslaved in Western Massachusetts at the age of 3 – for 30 years – Terry then settled with her family on a Guilford homestead carved out of the forest by her husband\, formerly enslaved frontier transport operator\, Abijah Prince. \nLike Ethan Allen\, the Princes found themselves caught up in turbulent times that threatened their prospects for the land and freedom they sought. Like Allen\, Lucy Prince upset the status quo in her assertive use of early Vermont’s legal and political systems to defend her family in the face of pressure and threats. \n\nEva Ndachi (as Lucy Terry Prince) is just REMARKABLE.” –Mikaela Lefrak\, Vermont Edition

SUMMARY:Woodstock VT Film Series: Driver
DESCRIPTION:Driver\n2024. Directed by Nesa Azimi. 90 minutes. Not rated. \nQ&A with Director Nesa Azimi following the Saturday screening. \nShowings take place at 3:00PM in the Billings Farm & Museum Visitor Center Theater. Tickets are $15 person/$12 Billings Farm member. \nPurchase Tickets  \nAfter losing everything\, Desiree Wood takes a second lease on life as a long-haul truck driver. Alongside an irreverent group of women truckers\, she fights for a life on the road. While this line of work brings socially precarious circumstances and solitude\, these women undertake their jobs with an air of gallows humor and steely commitment to their work. \nNesa Azimi’s soulful and contemplative Driver follows Desiree as she strives to leave her tumultuous past behind and navigate toward a more hopeful and stable future. Azimi implements honesty and grounded reality in her storytelling — all while keeping these women’s agency and determination intact. Through this intimate approach\, Driver becomes a microcosm of the broken-down but resolute American labor force and investigates this sensitive topic with understated yet deeply felt\, empathetic filmmaking. \n\n… A simply-made gaze into an overlooked culture\, one deserving of far more respect than it’s received and one that Azimi has captured beautifully.” –The Playlist
