2009 10 10 - Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father

Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father
89 mins/ English/ USA/ PG

A documentary film best seen without any idea of what it is about. It has been called "A true-crime story so gripping, devastating, and ultimately unforgettable that it easily trumps any thriller Hollywood has to offer this year" by The Village Voice.

Begun as a film about his best friend, Andrew Bagby, film maker Kurt Kuenne cobbled together the film from hundreds of hours of footage. Undeniably over the top but there has not been another film made that is its equivalent - a Howl, a Roar and overall a Truly Heartfelt Screed for Justice and Goodness in the world.

"One of the Top 5 Documentaries of the Year." - The National Board of Review
"Top 10 Audience Favorite." - Hotdocs

Please join us for a post-screening discussion about the film at The
