Osher Lifelong Learning Institute presents Connections, a documentary film series featuring Sam Now (2022)

$15 per person

What do two film-obsessed brothers do to solve a family mystery? Using every video format imaginable, they make a movie as they travel thousands of miles looking for their missing mother. Stitching together 25 years of home videos and filling gaps in the archive with play, Sam Now is a mosaic of love, longing, and loss, as well as an attempt to heal intergenerational trauma. After watching the film together, students can engage in a facilitator-led conversation about the film's content and impact, which forges deeper learning and social connections.
