DESCRIPTION:\n	With Brett Story in person \n\n\n	\n\nDir. Brett Story. 2019
 \, 94 mins. Digital projection. A complex portrait of a city and its inhab
 itants\, The Hottest August offers a window into the collective consciousn
 ess of the present. The film’s point of departure is one city over one mon
 th\, canvassing the five boroughs of New York City during August 2017. It’
 s a month heavy with the tension of a new President\, heightened anxiety o
 ver everything from rising rents to marching white nationalists\, and recu
 rring news reports of wildfires and hurricanes along the coasts. Brett Sto
 ry (The Prison in Twelve Landscapes)\, her camera and crew survey the comm
 unity\, asking (sometimes explicitly\, other times implicitly) what the fu
 ture looks like from where they are standing\, knowing all along that not 
 everyone stands in the same place. The Hottest August offers a mirror onto
  a society on the verge of catastrophe\, registering the anxieties\, distr
 actions\, and survival strategies that preoccupy ordinary lives. “This col
 lection of interactions with ordinary people is a cinematic gift both simp
 le and multilayered\, an intellectual challenge and an emotional adventure
 .”—Glenn Kenny\, The New York Times\, Critic’s Pick \n\n	\n	This program i
