SPECIAL EVENT! An onstage conversation with filmmaker/director & fellow Newburyport native Nikole Beckwith about her first feature film, STOCKHOLM, PENNSYLVANIA. The movie had its US premiere at Sundance 2015 and its European premiere at the Stockholm International Film Festival 2015. It was then sold to Lifetime cable TV and was broadcast nationally.

Starring Academy Award and Golden Globe nominees Cynthia Nixon (Sex And The City) and Saoirse Ronan (Brooklyn, Atonement) and Golden Globe nominee Jason Issacs (Harry Potter, The State Within) STOCKHOLM, PENNSYLVANIA tells the story of Leia. She was abducted 17 years ago and is only now returning to her biological parents. She must confront the disparity between the world she was raised in and the world she finds herself in. Her mother Marcy is struggling with new sudden motherhood and the fear that her daughter is lost to her somehow forever. The women wrestle with understanding each other. Marcy becomes increasingly set on getting Leia back by any means necessary.
