TELL THEM YOU LOVE ME
Dir. Nick August-Perna, 2023, 103 min 
New York City Premiere

This true-crime documentary follows the story of an esteemed university professor who becomes embroiled in a controversial affair with Derrick Johnson, a non-verbal man with cerebral palsy, leading to a criminal trial that would challenge our perceptions of disability and the nature of consent. Through exclusive footage and interviews, this feature documentary weaves a riveting and nuanced story about communication, race, and sex.

Post-Screening Discussion TBA!
