SUMMARY:Screening off the documentary "Orwell: 2+2=5"
DESCRIPTION:58 Depew Avenue Nyack\, NY 1096 \n(845) 353-2568 \nContact: Patricia Schneider/Publicist \n(917) 612-2675 \nAuthoritarian Power\, Past & Present is Explored in “Orwell: 2+2=5 “ At Rivertown Film \n  \nJanuary 2026 – George Orwell was a prophetic writer whose interest in the subject of totalitarianism became the basis for his books\, Animal Farm and 1984. On Wednesday\, February 11th Rivertown Film will screen the documentary  “Orwell: 2 + 2 = 5” at the Nyack Center (58 Depew Ave.\, Enter on Broadway). \nThis essayistic film\, directed by Raoul Peck\, is a work of visceral urgency – heady\, enlivening\, and disturbing. Anchored by Orwell’s writing\, Peck charts his life in tandem with world-shattering events.  A line from one of Orwell’s essays\, “My starting point is always a feeling of partisanship\, a sense of injustice” – could serve as an artistic statement for Peck\, whose family fled Haiti under the Duvalier dictatorship. The director is clearly intrigued by Orwell the man\, but he isn’t solely interested in the biographical basics. He’s more interested by the writer’s relationship to the world he harrowingly diagnosed. Peck juxtaposes past and present issues-George W. Bush speaking about Iraq in 2002\, the Israeli Palestinian conflicts and the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capital-to create a through-line. The film is less 1984 than it is 2025. \nThere will be a discussion after the film with the produce/director\, Alex Gibney\, who won an Academy Award for his documentary “Taxi to the Dark Side”\, and moderated by writer and director Susanna Styron. \nDoors to the Nyack Center open at 7:30pm\, and the film begins at 8pm. Tickets are $13/General admission\, $11/Students & Seniors\, and $9/Rivertown Film Members More information can be found at rivertownfilm.org.  \nRivertown Film is a non-profit organization which was founded in 2001. Their mission is devoted to celebrating\, exploring and promoting the art of the motion picture through film screenings and educational programs. The organization is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts and with the support of Governor Kathy Hochul and the New York State Legislature\, and our corporate sponsors are Elena Schloss\, Happy Dwellings with Elena/ Julia B. Fee\, Sotheby’s International Realty\, PainterSmith\, Harrington Press\, and Emerald Medicare. \n#.  #.  #.  #

SUMMARY:Rivertown Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:58 Depew Avenue Nyack\, NY 1096 \n(845) 353-2568 \n  \nContact: Patricia Schneider/Publicist \n(917) 612-2675 \n  \nThe Reality of Living with Severe Mental Illness Explored in Documentary \n  \nJanuary 2026 – Rivertown Film takes a deep dive into one of the most urgent yet overlooked crises in America: the harsh truth about dealing with mental illness every day when it presents “No One Cares About Crazy People” on Wednesday\, January 28th at the Nyack Center (58 Depew Ave.\, Nyack). \n  \nThe documentary was inspired by Ron Powers’ acclaimed book of the same name – a hybrid narrative of tragic family memoir and searing social history. The film follows families and individuals who are struggling with schizophrenia\, bipolar and other disorders\, all trapped in the clutches of a dysfunctional system. Concurrently\, a growing movement of national advocates are introduced. \n  \nDirector Gail Freedman delivers a film that’s both intimate and wide-reaching. We witness as author Powers\, whose two sons are schizophrenic\, come to terms with the suicide of one of those sons. He and his wife are ushered into the “sub-nation” of those with serious mental illnesses\, a third of whom go untreated. We also meet the Burgos family\, whose husband and father suffers from severe bi-polar disorder\, enveloping the family in crisis after crisis. Finally\, the heartrending tale of Mark Rippee\, a psychotic\, blind and homeless man unfolds. Despite the ministrations of his two sisters\, Rippee is unable to transcend his grim reality. \n  \nThe film also presents the birth of a national grassroots movement to radically reform our broken care systems. California\, the epicenter of serious mental illness reform\, now has its Governor and state legislature responding to public pressure with bold and controversial initiatives.  These are followed over the course of three years\, with Governor Gavin Newsom sitting for an interview. “No One Cares About Crazy People” harnesses the power of storytelling as a tool for change\, while galvanizing public discussion. \n  \nThere will be a post-film discussion with Gail Freeman and the film’s editor\, Dina Potocki\, as well as Alyssa Schmidt\, Vice President of Mobile Support Services at Greater Mental Health of New York\, based in Valley Cottage. The Community Partner for the film is Greater Mental Health of New York. \n  \nDoors to the Nyack Center open at 7:30pm\, and the film begins at 8pm. Tickets are $13/General Admission\, $11/Students & Seniors\, and $9/Rivertown Film Members More information can be found at rivertownfilm.org. \n  \nRivertown Film is a non-profit organization which was founded in 2001.
