Event Description

Join us every third Sunday for Doc and Dis, where we screen a documentary and discuss it afterwards!

Realizing the urban legend of their youth has actually come true, two filmmakers delve into the mystery surrounding five missing children and the real-life boogeyman linked to their disappearances.

Official Selection at the Tribeca Film Festival and Fantastic Fest. Nominated for Best Documentary at the Chicago International Film Festival.

"Cropsey has all the trappings of a true-crime TV special, but with an undercurrent of cultural exposition that is intelligent, profound and unsettling." - John Anderson, Variety

We'll be screening the 84-minute film and a having discussion afterwards.
