Key West NOW Women’s Film Fest Each Wednesday in March

By Women, About Women, FOR Everyone

Key West – The Second Annual Women’s Film Festival opened to an eager crowd last night with “Middle of Nowhere,” Ana DuVernay’s 2012 award-winning film. The Festival will continue each Wednesday in March. 

“Salt of the Earth” will be shown on March 9th. The 1954 classic from the black-listed director Herbert Beberman tells the story of the women in a New Mexico mining community who walk the picket lines when the men are barred from union activity. 

The Festival screens “The Beaches of Agnès” on March 16th, “Daughters of the Dust” on March 23rd and closes on March 30th with the popular and stirring “Whale Rider.”

The Key West Chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW) promotes woman’s rights to reproductive health care, fairness in education and employment, freedom from violence, justice for LGBTQIA citizens and life without racism. The Tropic Cinema is an award-winning, independent, non-profit theater showing popular, classic, foreign, regional and experimental films.

All showings begin at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are available online at tropiccinema.com or at the door. For everyone’s safety, covid protection policy requires attendees to show a negative PCR done within the past 72 hours or a completed vaccination document and to wear masks.
