Newtown screens Friday February 24th through Sunday February 26th at Webster University’s Moore Auditorium (470 East Lockwood). The movie starts at 7:30 all three evenings.
Twenty months after the horrific mass shooting in Newtown, Ct that took the lives of twenty elementary school children and six educators on December 14, 2012, the small New England town is a complex psychological
web of tragic aftermath in the wake of yet another act of mass killing at the hands of a disturbed young gunman. Kim A. Snyder’s searing Newtown documents a traumatized community fractured by grief and driven toward a
sense of purpose.
The critics love Newtown:
The Atlantic said:
“It feels like the closest thing to a tribute audiences can pay to the children and adults who died, and the town that continues to grieve them.”
The L.A. Times says:
“Snyder has chosen to make a documentary about collective grief.
