Rivertown Film presents "Off and Running" at The Nyack Ctr 8:00 PM Wed. 10.27.10

Meet Avery Klein-Cloud, an African-American teenager at the center of this powerful, intimate documentary about family and identity. Raised in a household with white Jewish lesbian parents and two adopted non-white brothers, Avery's curiosity about her biological mother and her search for racial identity spark a life crisis.
But gradually she puts her life back together and re-connects with her close-knit adoptive family.

Rivertow...n Film is proud to be screening this unique and affecting film, which was a finalist for the Tribeca Film Festival's "Audience Favorite" award, on Wednesday, October 27th at the Nyack Center (Broadway at Depew). Avery Klein-Cloud will be on hand for a post-film discussion. The evening begins at 8pm, with doors opening at 7:30pm. Tickets are $10/General Admission, $8/Students, Seniors and General Members, and $7/Students and Senior Members. Tickets can be purchased in advance from rivertownfilm.org or by calling (800) 838-3006, and are available at the door the evening of the screening.
