In this episode, the folks from Western Colorado University's Screenwriting MFA Program and The Crested Butte Film Festival explore Sarah Polley's fascinating documentary about life, family secrets and the mutability of memory. We get lost in a mind-bending discussion about what's real and what's not! Plus, our hosts share their own favorite movies about family dysfunction, adding even more films to your must-see list.  If you would like to receive emails informing you of our upcoming movie selections, send an email to: [email protected] We are grateful to the wonderful DP/30 YouTube channel for a bit of interview audio with Sarah Polley, and to Metropole Films and The National Film Board of Canada for the "Stories We Tell" trailer. Our theme music is by Levgen Poltavasky at Pixabay. Our audio wizard is Mike Janowski.  Thanks for listening to our podcast about the art of movies and the lost art of conversation!
