Bullfrog Films presents...CAN YOU HEAR US NOW?
Bullfrog Films is pleased to present a virtual film screening of the documentary CAN YOU HEAR US NOW? on Wednesday, May 12 at 6pm CT. Following the screening, join us for a Q&A with the film's director, Jim Cricchi, and producer Susan Peters.
Small-town activism. Nail-biting elections. A last-minute power grab. In Wisconsin, where extreme partisanship has become the norm, voters are finding their lives increasingly irrelevant to state lawmakers. Through the stories of four tireless women fighting to have their voices heard, CAN YOU HEAR US NOW? unravels the ways that years of one-party rule have reshaped democracy in Wisconsin—a state at the center of American politics.
To attend the virtual screening, please RSVP using the form below before Wednesday, May 12. Bullfrog Communities will send a Film Screening Page link along with a password for viewing the livestream.
This special event was created in conjunction with the Midwest Political Science Association.
