Stubborn
- 8:30PM
Experimental filmmaker and video artist Armel Hostiou (Day) expands his 2013 short Kingston Avenue into this feature film about the lies we tell ourselves in the name of love. Artist Barbara (Kate Moran) tires of her (very) brief relationship with Vincent (Vincent Macaigne) and leaves him behind in Paris. But the resolute Vincent follows her to America, determined to win back her affections. Shot in New York in wintertime and featuring daytime soap veteran Murray Bartlett as Barbara’s new love interest, Stubborn, like its hero, is unabashedly romantic, utterly captivating, and often uncomfortably hilarious.

This screening will feature a Q&A with director Armel Hostiou, co-writer Lea Cohen, actor Murray Bartlett, and producers Gaëlle Ruffier and Jasmina Sijercic.
