    Film: Playground (2021)

    An Appalachian Summer Festival

    Friday, July 8, 2022
    7 p.m.

    In this debut feature by writer-director Laura Wandel, the everyday reality of grade school is seen from a child’s-eye-view as an obstacle course of degradation and abuse. Transposing the gritty realism of such filmmakers as Jacques Audiard and the Dardennes Brothers to the inner world of kids, Wandel crafts an empathetic and visceral portrait of the cruelty of children, and the failure of adults to protect them. Presented as part of the Helene and Stephen Weicholz Global Film Series.
