Wed., March 27 @ 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
WSIU, the Carbondale Public Library, and ITVS invite you to a free film screening + dinner + community conversation on the Independent Lens film Matter of Mind: My Parkinson’s.
Join us after the screening for a discussion on the film and how it relates to our Carbondale community.
ABOUT THE FILM: In Matter of Mind: My Parkinson’s, three people navigate their lives with resourcefulness and determination in the face of a degenerative illness, Parkinson’s disease. An optician pursues deep brain stimulation surgery; a mother raising a pre-teen daughter becomes a boxing coach and an advocate for exercise; and a cartoonist contemplates how he will continue to draw as his motor control declines. Matter of Mind premieres on WSIU Monday, April 8th. Watch on the PBS App starting at 9pm.
Box meals available for the first 35 attendees; made possible by WSIU through iTVS grant funding.
