Cinema Alive:

When a movie is shown with the director present it becomes more than just a screening but Cinema Alive. Cinema Alive is a film series during ShoutOut Saugerties created by Katie Cokinos, a local filmmaker and founder of the Saugerties Film Society. This year’s slate of films are: Little White Lie, a powerful documentary about race and identity by Lacey Schwartz Delgado on October 16; short films by up and coming filmmakers from Saugerties High School and the Woodstock Day School along with a preview of the work in progress, “Voices of the Esopus Creek” (working title) by Katie Cokinos and Guy Reed on 10/19. Cinema Alive will conclude on 10/23 with the ground-breaking, seminal feature film, Killer of Sheep, by Academy Award winning director, Charles Burnett.

The filmmakers will be present to introduce their work and there will be a question and answer afterwards with the audience.
