Following a screening at Waters Edge of his work-in-progress documentary A Brief History of Silence about author Marlon James and the queer Jamaican community, we will convene at the Barn with filmmaker Stephen Winter to discuss his work, inspirations, and motivations.
Stephen Winter is an award-winning filmmaker, director, producer, and writer. His debut feature film Chocolate Babies (1996) was restored in 2021 by UCLA/Outfest and twice featured on the Criterion Channel.
