Film Lovers, Medical Care Professionals, groundbreaking women, and STEM geeks of all ages:

Enjoy viewing and then discussing the compelling new documentary 1001 Cuts, winner of this season's DC Independent Film Festival award for best short documentary.  "The daughters of Title IX discover that pervasive stereotypes and gender-based discrimination persist within the high-stakes professional world of surgery - a workplace designed for and and still controlled by men."  Directed by Cornell alum, surgeon and filmmaker Sarah M. Temkin. See it together with 2 other STEM related documentaries for a ticket price of $5. Purchase the ticket yourself at https://www.docsinprogress.org/community

March 16th, 4:30 - 6:15 will include Q n A with the directors at the Community Stories Film Festival.
