These films feature individuals who live on “the outskirts of our society,” according to the Atlanta Film Festival webpage. “They challenge viewers to find beauty in the places and the characters of our city that are often dismissed.”

In addition to the film screening there will be Q&A’s with the award-winning filmmakers as well as a mobile gallery exhibit from “We Love ATL that has been curated specifically for the Homespun audience.”

Attend the Homespun Series July Screening this Thursday, July 17 from 7:30-9:30 pm at The Plaza Theater.
