INTRODUCING CIFF LOVE LETTERS: Valentines day has come early! We’ve thought a lot this year about how we can build connections between audience members and filmmakers within a virtual space. One of the hardest things about this year for filmmakers, is that they have not been able to forge spontaneous connections with audiences and hear from them directly. If you’ve seen a film you have loved, click <a href="https://airtable.com/shrYRzigloM195wPc" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">HERE</a> to write a love letter to a filmmaker!

RECOVERY IN MAINE: WASHINGTON COUNTY is a story of relentless hope, resilience, and recovery — the kind of recovery that is only possible when a community sets stigma aside and shows up to meet people where they are.

Recovery in Maine: Washington County

RECOVERY IN MAINE: WASHINGTON COUNTY is a story of relentless hope, resilience, and recovery.

Jacinta&nbsp;will screen virtually from October 2-12, 2020. This film will be only available to viewers in New England. Filmed for over three years, Jacinta begins at the Maine Correctional Center where Jacinta, 26, and her mother Rosemary, 46, are incarcerated together, both recovering from drug addiction. As a child, Jacinta became entangled in her mother's world of drugs and crime and has followed her in and out of the system since she was a teenager. This time, as Jacinta is released from prison, she hopes to maintain her sobriety and reconnect with her own daughter, Caylynn, 10, who lives with her paternal grandparents. Despite her desire to rebuild her life for her daughter, Jacinta continually struggles against the forces that first led to her addiction. With unparalleled access and a gripping vérité approach, director Jessica Earnshaw paints a deeply intimate portrait of mothers and daughters and the effects of trauma over generations. Please be aware that JACINTA contains some graphic imagery of active drug use. Viewer discretion is advised.
