Join us for a screening of Q, followed by a Q&A with the Director, Jude Chehab.
An intimate and haunting portrayal of a quest for love and acceptance at any cost, Q depicts the considerable influence of a secretive matriarchal religious order in Lebanon on 3 generations of women in the Chehab family. Award-winning filmmaker Jude Chehab potently documents the unspoken ties and consequences of loyalty that have bonded her mother, grandmother and herself to the mysterious organization. Q won the Albert Maysles award for the Best New Documentary Director at Tribeca Film Festival in 2023. This event is cosponsored by the Community Art Center.
