Doors open at 5:00PM

Program:
6:00 PM - 8:00 PM: Curated Screening of The Substance (Coralie Fargeat, 2024; 141min.)
8:00 PM - 9:00 PM: Post-Screening Discussion and Reception (Drink Specials All Evening)

The Substance is a body horror film written and directed by Coralie Fargeat. It follows a fading celebrity, Elisabeth Sparkle (Demi Moore), who, after being fired by her producer (Dennis Quaid) due to her age, uses a black market drug that creates a younger version of herself (Margaret Qualley) with unexpected side effects.

Noted for its satirical elements and grotesque, hyperrealistic imagery, The Substance is Fargeat's second feature film, after Revenge. Motivated by societal pressures on women's bodies and aging, she wrote the screenplay over two years, assembling a team to co-produce the film between France, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
